Really? Tin? Ten years of marriage…and it’s our TIN anniversary? I feel like way too much life has been lived for us to be represented by tin today.
And, yes, on the morning of our ten year anniversary…that’s what I am coming up with. Tin. I’ve been sifting through a million quotes online, and perusing our wedding photos all week, trying to find the words to capture the right sentiment. To represent my emotions. To symbolize my love, gratitude, and admiration for you, and us, and all that we have experienced and built together in the past ten years.
But the right words are escaping me. Because how can I sum up what feels like several different lifetimes? How can I reflect on so many varied experiences – the breathtaking, heartbreaking, wonderful, hysterical, joyous, lucky, frustrating, devastating, inspiring, and mundane – that have lead us to today?
I love you, Mike. I continue to be the luckiest girl in the world to get to hold your hand through life, and so long as we continue to walk together, I’ll have everything I need. I love our now, and am excited for where the next ten years will take us. (Maybe to Hawaii?)
Happy Anniversary, love.
