2 Year Anniversary

     Yesterday Billy and I celebrated our two year anniversary. It seems like just yesterday we were celebrating our first year together! Last year we took a wonderful weekend away in Charlottesville and imbibed in much wine tasting at several vineyards. 

     This year we had a much more frugal, low key celebration, but it was just what we needed, as my pregnancy drags on into the dog days of summer, I'm working summer school, and my uncomfortableness increases by the day. 

     After reflecting a lot about what these past two years have brought us, both joy and struggles, we spent last night putting into words what we love about one another. It's amazing how the qualities you love about your partner change with the seasons of our lives.

Billy, you are strong. You follow your heart and aspirations even when it's difficult to do so.

You are selfless. You always have the best interest of your growing family in your mind and are constantly seeking ways to be the best provider you can be for us, (even when I don't realize or appreciate it.) You work so hard every single day and I know it's all for us. You are caring. You want the best for me and our unborn baby and I know you are going to be a wonderful father by the way you show your love already each day. You work hard to establish trust between us, even with the little things you do, and that matters so much to me. You are my best friend. Through our many transitions this year you have become not only my spouse, but my partner, and I can't wait to continue to develop and deepen our friendship as a team, as we embark on our new adventure in the next chapter of our lives. Love you.
