In celebration
May 22, 2011 § 8 Comments
Two years ago today, I was practicing a walk down the aisle.
Two years ago today, I held hands with my favorite person in the whole world and echoed the priest’s dialogue.
Two years ago today, I giggled my way through the mime, through the playing pretend.
Two years ago today, I prepared to step forward into a new identity, a new skin, a new life, a new relationship.
Two years ago today, I mingled with family and friends the last day I would be known by my maiden name.
Two years ago today, I slept fitfully, filled with anxiety and excitement for what the next day would bring.
Today, I am celebrating with the one person who knows exactly how I feel before I can even form the words.
Today, I am stronger, happier, better than I have ever been before.
Today, I have started a home with the only man who could make that home as warm and loving as it is.
On the eve of our second anniversary, I am flooded with comparisons of my old life and this one. I am hardly the same person any more.
And I have Robert to thank for that.
Happy Anniversary to you and Robert! May your lives be filled with love, joy and adventure.
Thank you, Lisa. π
Happy Anniversary!
Thanks Leonore! π
Happy anniversary! It’s hard to believe it’s already been two years.
Thanks, Tim! π I can’t believe it’s been two whole years either.
Happy Anniversary! My wife and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary on Friday and of course, I wrote a post about it as well. Check it out when you get a chance.
Thanks, Jim! I loved your post–that was so sweet. I look forward to when we’re celebrating our fifth anniversary, too.
