I wanted it to be a surprise. I know he likes cereal so I was just waiting for him to find it. He seemed bothered by something, and I asked what was wrong. He was still bothered about a problem we had yesterday. We talked about our feelings and it ended in us both crying and comforting/reassuring each other. It is very rare that he cries. I know he is deeply hurt if he sheds a tear. After that, I told him about the little list I did, and he read it and absolutely loved it. He said he was going to keep it forever. I didn’t know what to expect and I was so overwhelmed with joy I felt like I was going to explode. I thought the list might’ve been pointless 

I know we are going to have disagreements in the future and my cute little corny gift isn’t a fix-all, but I had a feeling he wasn’t aware of the depth of my love and appreciation for him. He doesn’t realize that I truly see him as special and irreplaceable so I figured why not let him know what exactly I love about him.
