the second year

serendipity: the phenomenon of finding valuable things not sought for.

Meeting Devin was pure serendipity. For us both. Neither of us were looking for anything, especially not our future spouse, but I am grateful every day that I found this man on accident. That I walked into that wedding, and that he cared to notice, and that he had the nerve to contact me. And that he couldn't deny wanting to get to know me. I'm so glad I took a chance on him, even though it felt like a risk sometimes.

Devin, I am proud of you. I am proud to be your wife. I'm proud of our marriage and I'm proud of the life we have built together. I wouldn't trade it for anything. I love that I get to keep all these adventures and trials and milestones with you forever. I love not having to share those with anyone else. We've come pretty far since our wedding day, and it's so crazy to look back and see all we've been through and all the places we've been in these last 2 years. It makes me excited to see where the next two years take us, and all the years after that.

I love you so much more than I ever thought I could. So much more than I ever thought was possible. I feel so privileged to have married my very best friend. Happy anniversary, love.

Two years!?
