It’s hard to believe that two years ago today I was getting ready to marry the most amazing woman I had ever met. How do you put into words how much you love a person, or all you’ve experienced together in life? You can’t do it justice. But from the first bite of the donut, I knew our marriage was going to be great.

From the beginning of our marriage, God has been so good. Obviously, He was good before, but if you were at our wedding you could see it. The entire week up to our wedding was rainy and cold. Then Friday it warmed up and the winds came, and Saturday was beautiful and dry. A perfect October wedding.

And we can see the hand of God in our marriage today. There has been joy and suffering, laughter and tears, but through it all we can hear God tell us that He loves us and He wants us to see our full potential as one. Daily, I am reminded how selfish I am, and how lovely Katie is. I can only hope and pray to love her like I should.

Truth be told, she’s easy to love! Who isn’t enthralled by her jokes, wit and personality. Or captivated by her beauty (especially that new haircut, ooh la la!). I am blessed beyond anything I could have imagined. I am truly grateful that God gave me the woman of my dreams, and the love that He gave us has continued to grow and grow. I can honestly say I love Katie more today than ever.

So we look forward to year three, I have a feeling it’s going to be an adventure. Whatever happens I pray that I would put Katie before myself, and God before both of us.
