Happy Anniversary to Us!

To my husband...
The man I thought may never arrive... the man I thought perhaps did not exist... thank you.

Thank you for loving me in spite of the mood swings, fietstiness and stubborn Independence.

Thank you for being my quiet strength... my soft place to fall.

The year has passed in a whirlwind... much like the days in which we met and fell in love. Even now there are days that I find myself pondering the events of the last 2 years, wondering what in the world happened and how I found myself here... with you.

Nevertheless... every moment has been treasured... and I thank God every day for bringing you into my life.

I love you, Eric.

ohhhh, I crying now! That was so sweet! I'm with Carrie and am wondering about that birth/anni gift you were so worked up about? Was it a little getaway? The pictures are beautiful and you both look so happy. Many blessings for you this next year. Maybe some pitter-patter of little feet:)!!

Apparently I have to go on guessing until tomorrow. My birthday is this weekend and since it is an
"Annibirthery" gift (of which I have always told him he would not allowed to combine but supposedly this one's big and is worthy of just that)... he says I don't get it until somewhere in between the two dates.

So there ya go! To be continued...

Happy Anniversary from us too. You wrote such nice things about Eric, I know he feels the same about you.
We are so blessed you "found" each other. Happy to have you in the family.

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO YOU !!
The pics are great. You are beautiful !
Such a sweet poem to your hubby, too !

My husband & I just celebrated our anniversary on Aug. 2. 32 years ! You have a long way to go to get there, but may you have peace, love & strength along the way and most of all may Christ be the center of your lives, both individually and as a couple.

(I love reading your blog).

Happy Birthday, too. Can't wait to hear what your gift is.
