And here he is, the man who is almost nearly impossible to capture in a photograph. He is also the one, who for some reason I will never fully understand, chose to spend his life with me. To provide him with a small sense of anonymity I will refer to him as Mr. Kimberly Anne Photography, or Mr. KAP for short. Mr. KAP is the first, and last, person where I have ever felt my head, my heart, and my gut in sync. My mom told me that once. "Your head, your heart, and your gut have to match" to know you are picking the right person. Being able to identify that took only a couple short months (but shhhh... we'll keep that to ourselves). I wasn't afraid to be him, I was elated. I was Allie in my most favorite novel, The Notebook. Young, completely in love, willing to give up what I had to to be with him.

As I speak of notions of romance you will never hear Mr. KAP talk of such things. He is a man of few words but has an unprecedented amount of loyalty, respect, honor, and dignity. What fascinates me about my husband is his ability to persevere. I have never met a man with such determination, will power, and strength to acquire his goals. He gives more to our family and community than he receives in return and maintains such resilience that has yet to appear compromised.

What I fall in love with every day is how perfect he is for us (by "us" I mean myself and our girls). He will always be my daughter's first kiss, their first dance, their first hero. He will always be the first man they fell in love with and the first man who fell in love with them. For that I am grateful incomparable to words
