Happy 20th wedding anniversary to my beautiful wife.

20 things I love about LaTrisa Hope Presson:

1. She's a wonderful woman who has indelibly marked her children's heart with a love for God

2. Has loved me when I didn't deserve it.

3. She's the kind of lady who won't go to Wal Mart without fixin' up,

4. Will wash (what looks to me like) clean clothes,

5. Believes a hot meal for her family is a sacred event,

6. Wants her little girl to look like a princess (all the time),

7. Sincerely appreciates it when her man cleans her vehicle,

8. Could make millions of dollars as an interior decorator,

9. Could be National Teacher of the Year becasue she has a natural "knack" for handling children,

10. Once threw a skirt on the back patio in the middle of the night becasue she had a dream that it was highly flammible,

11. Knows how to make good snow cream (She must be from Illinois),

12. Can put ideas into words on a page in a way that causes other to emote along with her,

13. Pitched a baseball with me for the first time in her life when we were dating and acted like she'd grown up on the ball diamond,

14. Like to have candles lit around the house when the remote possbility exists of a power outage,

15. Has always been the "go to" person when you're trying to come up with an idea for anything from a party favorite to a name for a new ministry at church,

16. Can look at a 20 year old candid picture of us and remember what we were talking about at that exact moment in time,

17. On a road trip she groggily wakes up from sleeping, after I hit a bump, and absently asks me if she should drive (and then she goes back to sleep),

18. Love that she loves old Columbo episodes (or most anything from the 70's and 80's probably becasue she didn't have a TV growing up)

19. Wants the best woman possible for her boys (each one a different woman, of course) and the best man for her girl

20. Still likes to be kissed (by ME) after 20 years
