Happy 4th Anniversary!

To My Sweetheart,

Four years ago today, I walked down the aisle to become your wife. It was by far, one of the happiest days of my life. I had waited and searched for many years to find the man I knew would become my companion until the end of time. On June 25, 2004, you walked into my world and turned it upside down. I knew the moment I saw you that there was something special, and within a few short months, knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you and have a family with you.

Over the past four years, my love for you has grown exponentially stronger. Our marriage and our love for one another has been tested and proven it can weather anything. We have seen each other at our worst, had our fights, and held each other when it seemed like all hell was going to break loose upon us. Through it all, you were by my side, holding me, and sometimes carrying me. You helped me to be strong when I was weak. You guided me when I needed a push in the right direction. But most importantly, you stuck with me and helped me achieve the one thing I wanted most: to be a mother to your children.

There have been many moments in our lives together that your love for me has been proven time and again, and in those moments, I remember how very blessed I am to have you in my life, as my husband from now until the end of time. I want to be with you forever, and I am willing to do whatever it takes to keep our love for each other and our marriage strong. You are a wonderful husband and father. Your love for me and our baby is astounding at times. I am so blessed with your patience and unconditional love.

You help make sense of a crazy world. You help keep things in perspective. You're my hand in the dark. The gentle reminder that life is not only worth living, but that it is great. You're my sun in the morning, and my moon and stars at night.

I am honored and blessed to be your wife, and I will love you all the days of my life and beyond.

First of all, that was a beautiful post. It really strikes home with me because Mike and I celebrate our 4th anniversary on October 15th. The love that the two of you share is beautiful and definitely worth waiting for :)

Secondly, I loved the video, in part because I love that song, but also because I can see how happy the two of you were on that day.

Congratulations to you both, and I wish you the best for many more years to come :)

LOL! Sarah, that cracks me up. I guess I shouldn't be putting wedding videos together late at night when I am exhausted and just want to go to sleep. The joys of being in a hurry and tired.
