For my groom...

Four years ago today I walked down the aisle with my best friend.  We made promises with no way of knowing exactly what the future would hold…or what those promises would have to withstand.  What I did know was that Graham was the most genuine, caring, respectful and selfless man that I had ever met and we knew that if we committed to doing marriage God’s way, and not our way or the world’s way, that by His grace it would grow and persevere through anything.  These past four years have been the most amazing and most challenging of my life.  Our life is nothing short of a wild ride and there is no one in the entire world that I would rather have by my side then Graham – a man who is both a leader and a servant and who seeks like crazy to know what God wants for our little family.

Exactly, one year ago today we found out that we were pregnant.  It was an absolutely amazing celebration of our anniversary and the new things to come.  One year later we find ourselves in a new state, in a new home, in new jobs and roles and with a new baby….like I said our life is nothing short of a wild ride…

Thank you does not begin to say enough for all you are Graham and all that you do as a husband and as Chloe’s daddy.  Thank you for your encouragement and your support in everything that I do.  Thank you for your diligence in praying for me and for our future.  Thank you for mid-night Slurpee runs and for still asking me to slow dance with you in the kitchen.

Thank you for the last 7 years of friendship, 4 years of marriage and for your commitment and companionship in the years and adventures to come.

I love you.  Happy Anniversary my sweet.
