Why Stephen Is The Best Valentine Ever

I have been with my boyfriend Stephen for almost 13 years so here are 13 reasons why he is, and always will be, the best Valentine ever.

13. He has the patience of a saint

You'd have to in order to put up with my erratic behavior

12. He doesn't judge my strange obsession with cycling announcers...

Liggett
Sherwen

11. Or NFL referees...

Mike Carey is the fiercest ref in the NFL.

10. Or random Santa spottings

Santa is real y'all...

9. Who rides a 100 mile bike race on his 30th birthday? Stephen does!*

8. He loves our dogs like they are his children

The cutest 4-legged children ever!

7. He drags me kicking and screaming to go camping

And I always end up having a good time (even though I won't admit it. It goes back to that erratic behavior thing.)

6. He accepts my crazy, disfunctional family

Yes that is my mother. It was Halloween.

5. He knows how important it is to me that I see the penguins at the zoo

Bonus points if it's during feeding time

4. He believes in supporting good causes

Like the Wild Animal Sanctuary (everyone should donate money to this place)

3. He knows my favorite restaraunt before I've even eaten there

Tasting menu at Rioja. Best meal of my life.

2. He is on board with my dream wedding

Vegas. Graceland Chapel. Elvis. What could be more fun than that?

1. When he stands next to me, I know I'm the luckiest person in the world

And that makes him the best Valentine ever. Happy Valentines Day S'mers! XOXO
