All of the sudden it hits me, "OH S..T, I did it again." No stores are open at this time of day in this little old town. I ran to the computer room and was hoping there was a few sheets of paper left for the printer. There was four and that was it. No room for error on this deal.

"Here goes nothing" I said to myself.

On the first page, I put a picture of us, the day we exchanged our wedding vows. Goin on four years now. Down at the bottom I wrote "I LOVE YOU", Signed,YOUR HUBBY JOHN DAVID, FOREVER AND ALWAYS.

I started out by saying how glad I was that she was born and that she was still around. Said "Don't know where I'd be if you hadn't come around. Told her that I would always be there for her, even when she kinda rant and raves a little. I figure it's my fault anyways for not knowing how to behave. Said "I don't know if we'll ever have children, and really didn't care."Said"It ain't up to me anyways, It's up to the Big Man upstairs.

Told her none of that matter all that much to me as long as she would always be there. Told her I would always be here for her through her ups and downs. But probably not ever going to promise to that I would quit clowning around.

Put on there, "So have a safe trip, I'll see you when you get home. I'm going fishing with Derick and may forget to take my phone. "just kidding" I said real quick like after that comment.

Love, Your Hubby, John David, Forever and Always.

put a p.s. at the bottom in real fine print, said "And if you ever do get tired of my s..t, all you have to do is walk across the street and get the sheriff, he knows me on a personal level. He won't question her a bit,cause see, he is around us alot, and he know I need my ass kicked.

That was three pages worth, so I made me a cover sheet. It said "Don't read this til you get to your daddy's house." Cause you see, at this point, I need all the help I can get.

Her father and me get along real well, and he is as cool as he can be. He asked me last night at the football game, kinda over to the side. He said "Son, I sure hope you ain't gonna forget my little babies birthday again this year." So with no thought at all I just kinda waved him off. Said,"Nosir, not thiss year." Although I was thinking in my head, here you went and done it again, don't wait til the last minute, dipstick, you know you can't remember s..t.

I am just thankful for those four pieces of paper and a few paper clips. True story all the way through..
