He wrote me this letter and I canโt help but choke up reading his words. ๐๐ฉ๐ช๐ด. This makes it all worth it.

. "Iโm going to try to put into words the emotions I feel with this new gift. As crazy and as grand as this gift really is, it is not THE reason why I am at a loss for words.
The real reason starts years and years ago.
We have been together since 2000. That puts us at 19 years together and 13 of them married. We have lived a whole lot of life together in that short amount of time. We walked the halls of high school together (made out in some of them), sat together in all of our 2 years of college, got married while ๐ด๐ต๐ช๐ญ๐ญ ๐ช๐ฏ college, spent the first year of our lives in your parents house.
It was there at your parents house, young, broke and in love that you pushed me to pursue my career.
We have built a life together. One step at a time, one job at a time, one child at a time, one risk at a time.
I am truly blessed because I had found at 16 years old what most spend a long time looking for โ their person, their love.
We have always supported each otherโs dreams, and you have always dreamed much bigger than I. You took a risk that, financially wasnโt ๐ต๐ฉ๐ข๐ต big of a deal, but could have hurt socially. Yes, you could have worried about what others thought, you could have even failed but you didnโt care. You had a vision of what you wanted for us, for our kids, one that I didnโt see.
Today I look back on all of the ๐ธ๐ฉ๐ข๐ต ๐ช๐ง๐ด, all the long talks at night about this shampoo company, what people would say, how this would work, when would you have time?
After much thought and prayer, the decision was clear, and to this day that decision could not be ANY clearer.
I am thankful for what you have done for this family, I am thankful for what you have done for me.
I have spent more time home with our family this past year than I ever have. I have been given the opportunity to make memories with my family because of you.
Soooo, although this truck is AWESOME, this truck is a symbol of freedom from financial chains that handcuffed us from time, memories and life.
You have changed our ๐ธ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ญ๐ฅ.
You have changed our ๐ง๐ข๐ฎ๐ช๐ญ๐บ
- Your husbandโ
