She's still the one

Rebecca is still the one for me. She is awesome, here are some awesome facts about her.

1. Has a great Texas smile that is impossible to photograph adequately and can light up a room or even a grumpy husband.
2. Is an excellent chef and has shown me a thing or two about proper Southern cookin'.
3. Has impeccable taste for fashion, interior decorating, premium cuisine, landscape design, friends and associations, literature, beauty, and much more.
4. Can negotiate with a fierce business savvy I envy very much.
5. Is a tender loving parent, very selfless and patient with her daughter in extremely aggravating situations and stressful circumstances such as living in a single room for several months cut off from friends and family.
6. Shares her beautiful voice in a church choir for Christmas carols and sometimes at home too. She also can play many songs on the piano and loves to sing Swedish Christmas songs.
   
7. Has quilting skills and has been working on appliqué blocks here in Austin that are very intricate and impressive.
8. Knows what it is like to live in a high crime, low income neighborhood. What it is like to have your house broken into and possessions taken from you. She appreciates the basics like a safe home, clean clothes, full cupboards, electricity, and education and does not sweat keeping up with the neighbors.
