Can't Count the Ways

"How do I love you, well count the ways. There ain't no number high enough to end this phrase. Baby, completely, wrapped up in you."

If I had the gift of singing I'd sing Garth Brooks' song Wrapped Up In You. However, that is not the case :) So I've listed many reasons why I love Shaun. The list doesn't even begin to do him justice though...
