But today, I stand before you, promising you my unconditional love. And I want to make sure you understand I mean it.
I promise to kiss you every morning even when your breath smells like death warmed over. I promise to feed you when you’re hungry and grumpy, and when you throw one of your famous fits, I’ll tickle you until your happy laughter returns. I promise to still love you when you insist on warming your icy feet on my legs under the covers. And I promise to always laugh at your corny jokes.
But my vow to you goes much, much deeper.
I will always stand by your side. I will always be proud to call myself your husband. I will always have a supporting hand for you and a shoulder for you to cry on. I’ll lend you my ear when you need to talk, nurse you when you’re sick, and be your shield when you need protection. I promise to be your best friend and biggest supporter.
My love doesn’t come with strings attached, Luca. I give it freely and unconditionally and forever.
