3 years

Nine years ago we met.

I stood you up for our first date.

Four years later, you took another chance on me.

We went on our first date and spent 7 hours talking.

I knew you were a rare and lucky find.  I knew you were the one for me.

Five years ago we officially became a couple.

Four years ago you dropped to one knee on a foggy and dark beach and asked me to marry you.

I couldn't even see the ring, or your face, but it was the most exciting moment of my life.

I said yes.

We bought our first home.

We became a family of three.

You embraced my family as if they were your own.

We fit in each other's lives like missing puzzle pieces.

My heart was finally complete.

Three years ago today we made a commitment to each other.

To love, honor, cherish, and respect. 

For the rest of our days.

 And look at how far we have come in three short years.

 

The amount of love in our lives was multiplied by infinity the day our precious son was born.

Our journey had only just begun.

And there is no other soul on this planet that I would want to share this life with.

We are best friends, lovers, soul mates.

We are each others own personal comedians.

We were destined for each other.

Because of you, I believe in fate.

God knew what he was doing when he brought you back into my life.

 God knew what he was doing when he gave us Nicholas Matthew.

And I can't wait to see what else He has in store for us.

Lord knows, it is going to be amazing.

 I love our little family.  I love our life together.

I love you.

Here's to forever.  And after.

Happy 3 years, my love.
