MY JOE
By Jennifer Lynn Lawson-Nigro
I HAVE ALWAYS DREAMED OF THE MAN I WOULD MARRY...
HE WILL BE BEAUTIFUL, INSIDE AND OUT.
HE WILL LIKE TO LAUGH AND WRESTLE AND HAVE FUN.
HE WILL WANT THE SAME THINGS, CHILDREN, A HOUSE IN THE COUNTRY, AND TO STAY YOUNG FOREVER
HE WILL BE SMART, NOT AFRAID TO LEARN, NOT AFRAID TO TEACH.
HE WILL BE STRONG IN MIND AND BODY AND HELP ME BE STRONG TOO.
HE WILL BE SENSITIVE, NOT AFRAID TO SHOW IT, NOT AFRAID TO CRY
HE WILL WANT TO TAKE CARE OF ME, NOT JUST WHEN I'M SICK, BUT ALWAYS
HE WILL UNDERSTAND MY MOODS, AND NOT JUDGE ME BY THEM, BUT CARE FOR ME.
HE WILL HAVE HIS OWN OPINIONS AND NOT JUST CONFORM TO ME, BUT LET IT SLIDE SOMETIMES
HE WILL LIKE TO TRY NEW THINGS, AND TEACH ME NEW THINGS THAT I NEVER THOUGHT I'D LIKE
HE'LL HAVE HIS PASSIONS, AND ALLOW ME TO HAVE MINE, BUT NOT GO OVERBOARD
HE'LL PROTECT ME, BUT WILL ALSO LET ME TRY TO PROTECT MYSELF FIRST
HE WILL PUT UP WITH ME, I, OF ALL PEOPLE KNOW I'M NOT EASY TO LIVE WITH
HE WILL HAVE DRIVE, A LOVE OF LIFE, A NEED TO MOVE FORWARD
HE WILL WANT TO MARRY ME, BECAUSE I'M DIFFERENT, NOT THE SAME
HE WILL BE MY PARTNER, MY TEAMMATE, US AGAINST THE WORLD
HE WILL HAVE PRIDE, LOVE HIMSELF AS MUCH AS HE LOVES ME
HE WILL WANT TO MAKE ME FEEL GOOD, AND THAT WILL MAKE HIM FEEL GOOD TOO
HE WILL LOVE TO MAKE LOVE, AND BE THE BEST, IT WILL BE PERFECT
HE WILL LOVE ME FOR WHO I AM, GOOD AND BAD, MOODS AND ALL
HE WILL BE EASY TO LOVE, HAVE A WONDERFUL LAUGH, AND BEAUTIFUL SMILE
HE WILL HAVE WARM HANDS THAT ENVELOPE ME WITH LOVE WITH EVERY TOUCH
HE WILL WANT TO GIVE ME THE WORLD, AND WILL, JUST BY HIS PRESENCE
HE WILL UNDERSTAND THAT SOMETIMES I NEED TO BE LEFT ALONE, AND OTHERS TO BE HELD
HE WILL UNDERSTAND THAT SOMETIMES I NEED TO CRY AND OTHERS TO LAUGH
HE WILL UNDERSTAND THAT SOMETIMES I NEED TO SING AND DANCE AND BE SILLY
HE WILL LOVE THE STARS IN THE COUNTRY AT NIGHT
HE WILL BE THE MOST AMAZING LOVING FATHER OF OUR CHILDREN
HE WILL WANT TO WALK NEXT TO ME AND WITH GOD FOR THE REST OF OUR LIVES AND MORE
SOME PEOPLE WOULD SAY I HAVE HIGH EXPECTATIONS, BUT THE JOKES ON THEM, I MARRIED HIM....
MY JOE
One of the most significant things was that Joe always just wanted to see the Steelers win another Superbowl, now I don't find it ironic, I think of it as God's work, I truly believe that Joe had a hand in the Superbowl win this year. I can picture God and Joe high-fiving up there, Joe would've been going crazy. That was a truly happy moment.
In Memory of My Joe

I lost my Joe. He was killed in a car accident just 5 miles before reaching home. I am devoting a page to him and to my journey into my life without my soulmate. Maybe it will help someone else in difficult times as well.
Please check out the page, I want everyone to know how amazing he was.
2006
This has been a very weird year. So much has happened.
I don't know where to start, maybe I should have kept up better with this, but its hard to put all those feelings into words.
I still can't.
I still love Joe with all my heart, here's one of the things I did for him.
I'VE MADE ANOTHER PAGE FOR JOE
"A YEAR LATER"
PLEASE CHECK IT OUT
