How One Kiss Changed the Future

We've been through so much over the course of our six years together. There's been a lot of growth and changes. Still, looking back, I can't say that I'd change much. Sure, we have our downs just as everyone else. It's how we learn from them that adds to our lives together.

You've added so much to my life! We started as friends that could talk until the wee hours of the morning. Soon, our friendship blossomed into so much more. Who knew that one passionate kiss would unlock the answer to the future? Now, we have two beautiful boys who are full of life and wonder. I see ourselves in them more each day.

Where there was pain in my life, you've lifted me to joy. Where there was loneliness and longing, you came alongside. Doug you've blessed my life in so many ways! Mere words cannot fully begin to express the gratitude that lies deep in my soul.

I just wanted you to know that as we celebrate our six years of marriage meagerly, that I count myself rich. For I am richly blessed in the warmth of your love! Happy sixth anniversary Doug, and as I said before-"If this all be a dream, please don't wake me. If this all be a fairly tale, let us end it with HAPPILY EVER AFTER!"
