Today is my anniversary, so I've been reflecting on this especially today. We met in highschool at 14 and by 16 we were inseparable. We knew when we were 16 we would get married some day. So today marks 12 years of being together, 3 of those "officially" married.
As young as we were, I have difficulty trying to imagine what life would have been like without him. We've always spent every possible moment together and most of my childhood memories are intertwined with his.
For sure I wouldn't have gone to the college I went to or probably ever moved so far from home if it hadn't been for him. He taught me everything I know about standing up for myself and believing I was intelligent enough to get somewhere in this world. I can say with complete confidence that I wouldn't be the person I am today if it hadn't been for him. We have a wonderful life together. And best of all he thinks I'm the most beautiful woman in the world no matter how many times I tell him I'm not.
Man, I'm totally getting all watery-eyed here!!
