3 years.

Full of: Laughs. Trips. Quarrels. Moving. Growing. Sharing. Learning. Praying.

So much has happened to us as husband and wife. Graduation, buying a house, leaving familiarity for a new town. Adjusting to new jobs, learning to cook and clean. Leading together, and finding joy in each other. Facing challenges and pursuing decisions that will never be regretted. Supporting.

I remember our vows. I remember knowing, he was the one. And always will be.

I can’t believe all of the memories and life changes that have been crammed into just 3 years….I can only imagine what more the Lord holds for us as we continue on over the years.

I see that Dillon is just what I need. Different from me, in good ways, and yet we share weird traits as well.

As I reflect on the treasure of my spouse, I also must mourn with those who have lost theirs, or perhaps long for one.

This is a bittersweet anniversary. We are more thankful, but with heavy hearts.

Tom and Cindy had a beautiful marriage. She was a good cook, loving mom, and supportive wife. Tom lived for her, to please her and found great delight in her company.
