Nick, I've missed 3 of these, and I'm devastated. I read these and remember our years. Remember the feelings I held and the peaks and valleys of our marriage. And for 3 years, I've missed the chance to capture where we are as a union. Forgive me.
This past year, we have struggled. But we have struggled together. I have needed your steadiness, patience and positive vibes. I have needed you. And you've shown up. Ready to play. Prepared to fight my battles with me. Confident of the light at the end.
A few of our rhythms:
We currently watch the Office every night. EVERY. NIGHT. It's good to laugh together.
We send one another stupid instagram videos that make us laugh. It's good to still be kids together.
We fight over what songs to play in the car. It's good for some things never to change. ;)
We love to travel. It's oh, so good to be away together. In a new experience. Making stories that only we share.
We tried to start a morning walk routine. That week was good. The quiet morning for just ourselves and the pups.
We have a date spot. Margs are good for the soul. Guac isn't too bad either.
We grab one another's hands. In church. In parking lots. In the car. It's good to love.
I am so proud of our marriage. Loyalty is unmatched. Trust abounds. Admiration overflows. Love reigns.
You are my safest spot. I breathe my real breaths with you. I live my real life with you. You are where I whisper my real fears. I scream my real craziness. You know the depths, and you're still here.
I love you, Nick.
