The Best Gift Ever

For anyone who didn't know, besides Erin being a photographer, designer and business women, she is also a singer/songwriter who used to play and travel quite a bit. Since photography has been so busy over the past few years she has not had has much time to spend on her singing and songwriting.

With that little bit of history I'm going to fast forward to yesterday. Whenever Erin has a gift she wants to give it's really hard for her to keep it until the day its supposed to be given, so I knew she had something up her sleeve, I just didn't know what it was. Just before we sat down to have dinner she took me to the tv and played a slideshow she made with a song she wrote. This is the first "love song" Erin has written and all I can say is I shed a few tears.

It took some convincing to let me post this because it's so personal for Erin and I, but how could I not share the best gift I have ever received from my wife and best friend.

Oh my gosh. You guys are the absolute mushiest couple I ever met. Heavy sigh. In my next life I want to marry someone like Erin....only the man version of course. :) ---Kerri
