It's hard to believe that Justin and I are celebrating 2 years of marriage today! Where has the time gone?? On one hand it feels like we were just dancing the night away while having the time of our lives....
And on the other hand it feels like we have been together forever as I just can't picture my life before him. We have been close friends for 4 years now, together 3 years and I still look back on our story and can't help but smile. Him liking me when I didn't like him...me liking him when he didn't like me....then me still liking him when I didn't know he liked me...and then BAM! Out of no where, Justin and I are finally on the same page as he confesses his feelings for me and we finally go on our first official date. I think it's safe to say we were both pretty sure after the first date...and 4 months later we were engaged! We had a blast dating since we already knew each other so well and knew it was going somewhere. What a fun story and lesson to me on patience and waiting for God's perfect timing. And now 2 years later, we are awaiting the arrival of our first baby that SHOULD come sometime next week!
Our first 2 years of marriage have not been a cake walk...sometimes I can't believe all that we have been through in 2 years. We've had 2 miscarriages, bought and built our first home, Justin started grad school, we went to a specialist, we moved, Justin changed jobs, my mom got diagnosed with cancer, and now we are about to have a baby. All pretty big stresses but God has been so good to us and has brought us closer together through it all. It is all by God's Grace! Of course we are not perfect and have learned a lot through these first 2 years and have a loooooong ways to go and much more to learn, but I'm thankful we can grow and learn together. I do pray that the Lord will allow us to celebrate 50 years together!
Happy Anniversary Justin! Thanks for loving me the way that you do!!
Beautiful! Congratulations and We Love You, Robert and Kathy!
