A Letter to My Husband

Today you and I celebrate 9 years of marriage.

When I think back to the day we got engaged and then the day we got married, I remember all the people who said we’d never make it. I remember all the people who swore we were too young.

But even more than that, I remember how much I loved you and how much I wanted us to be different. I hoped and I prayed that the love I had for you and the love you had for me would be enough to keep us together. I wanted nothing more than to prove them wrong and 9 years later, I can honestly say that I think we have.  

The past 9 years wasn’t always easy, but it was worth it. There’s not been a single second of our lives together that I’ve thought it was a mistake. Not one time where I wanted out.

I consider myself beyond blessed to say that at the age of 16, I found my soul mate. I found the one person that would forever change my life for the better. You have been such an amazing husband and an even better father to our children.  Your dedication to our family constantly amazes me.

I cannot wait to spend the next 50+ years of our lives together, proving all of those people wrong.

I love you!
