two years ago, i said "i do". i said "i do" to laughter, snuggles, arguments, tears, striving, joy, victories, failures, dates, and a forever valentine. these past two years have been more than i could have ever hoped. they have not been perfect, but they have been radical. we have moved 5 times, added two new family members, bought a car, gotten jobs, transferred jobs, learned to drive in the snow, battled depression, shared great highs (and lows), and so much more. there is no one else on this earth than could have been better for me. i know what true love is like because you have loved me as Christ does. you respect me, honor me, cherish me, and lavish me with unconditional love. i have never known anybody like you, and i guarantee i will never meet anybody like you. i have definitely not been the wife i should be; i have failed more times than i can count. but it is on days like today that i am reminded of God's gracious and humble love towards me, and you are the perfect example of that. happy two years; i can't wait to make a million more memories with you.
