When Lee is at sea I copy and paste all of my blog posts into an email so that he can read them. He is very limited in what he can pull up online while aboard ship and unfortunately my blog is one of those off limits sites. He surprised me and made me cry today when he emailed me this (below) today in response to my 100 Things About Rebecca post last week. I am so very proud to be married to my sweetheart. He's a keeper!
PS I have his permission to post this so don't give him any grief about being too sweet on his wife!
