To My Husband, on Our Anniversary

As I sit here today and reflect on the past 8 years, I can't help but to be reminded of all the wonderful memories we have shared together. We were just kids when we met at only 20 years old and here we are today about to have a kid of our own. We have had a whirlwind of a relationship from the first kiss, to falling in love, breaking up and making up again, to realizing that we wanted to spend the rest of our lives together, and now we have created the most beautiful gift that we could ever give each other. I think back to why I fell in love with you in the first place. You take care of me like no one else has. You cook for me and always make me try new and different foods. You almost always keep fresh roses in the house because you know they make me smile. For holidays I always get more than one card, because you can never choose one that fits perfectly. We balance each other out as you are the dreamer and I am the realist and always encourage me to try new things that I normally wouldn't do. You dropped everything to spend 2 1/2 months with me in Oklahoma City and it turned out to be one of the most memorable times of my life. We have created a life together, and it's far from perfect but its ours. We moved together at least 8 times before we found a house we could make our home. We have laughed together and cried together and made new friends while leaving others behind on our journey together. We have made mistakes, lots of them, but somehow our love always keeps us together. So today, on our second anniversary I just want you to know how much all this has meant to me. I know I probably don't tell you enough but I love you, I appreciate everything you do for me, and I am grateful for you and all the memories you have given me. Looking back, I wouldn't change anything about our story together. The tough times have made us stronger and the great times have really been fantastic and no matter what the future holds for us, I will always cherish every moment and memory. Exactly two years ago today, you made me the happiest woman in the world by making me your wife. In two short months I hope to give you that same feeling by making you a father. Happy Anniversary Baby.
