Today is June 7th. Not a very important date to most, but to me it's a day that makes me smile. On this day in 2002 a very handsome and sweet 16 year old boy drove me home from school, parked in front of my families apartment, grabbed my hand and asked: will you be my girlfriend? My answer, was of course, YES!
From that moment on we've shared 3,653 days, thousands of kisses, hugs, hand holds, and cuddles.
On December 7th 2006, we became man and wife
On January 2nd 2010, we welcomed our first child: Everett Leo
Bought our first home January 21, 2010
Welcomed our second child: Zooey Jane, October 14th 2011
We've spent a decade making memories; laughing, crying, telling each other our secrets, we've experienced loss and triumphs and failures together.
We aren't perfect, we make ALOT of mistakes. But at the end of the day we are still each other's best friends. We try and love each other like 1 corinthians 13: 4-8 and the Song of Solomon teaches, do we succeed? Not all the time, but we are both works in progress, and we know it.
There is something comforting in knowing you can be your absolute self with someone without fear of rejection. We are big dorks and we don't care.
I love you, my dear. You make me laugh and smile everyday. I'm so proud of the life we've built together thus far. Here's to the many more decades to come!
