All The Things I Love About You

Getting into my car accident last week snapped me back into the reality that life is too short. It made me appreciate the amazingly wonderful things in my life, most of all, my amazingly wonderful boyfriend. He did a great job at trying to take care of me and really be there for me when I was hurting from the pain from the accident.
A couple of Thursdays ago, after spending my evening with J after work, I suggested we play a game. Each day for the next week or so, we would text each other 10 things we love about the other person. I didn't think he would go for the idea, but he totally agreed with it, and we have been doing it ever since. Here is a compilation of the things we love about the other:
