Part of me cannot believe that it's been five years.
Most of me, after taking a few steps back to see the broad spectrum, realizes that inside these five short years so much has happened.
SO much, in fact, that it feels more like a lifetime.
In the last five years, we have finished college, gotten married, bought a house, had a baby, dealt with a very sick child, been more broke than we could imagine, oops, had another baby, survived an impossible work schedule, remodeled a house, struggled through our marriage, sold that house, bought a new house, juggled two work schedules, raised two very sweet babies into preschoolers...
I really could go on and on. You know how life comes at you.
But through it all, there was a constant, we had each other.
Our marriage has not been filled with everything either of us ever dreamed of.
It has had a bunch of hiccups along the way.
We have been through more together than, I am sure, we even realize.
But here we are, after 5 years of marriage, by the grace of God, still together.
I ponder into what the future holds and I obviously don't know what is there.
But I can see fragments of it because of the foundation that we now stand on.
I think we are entering a period of time in our lives that is more fruitful than any time that preceded it.
I am excited about what the future holds.
I look forward to what the next five years have to offer us, or rather, what we have to offer the next five years, 10 years, 50...
I feel more equipped than ever to walk through this life with you by my side.
And to love you.
Happy Anniversary, my love.

Happy Anniversary. I am so proud of you guys and the people you have become. I pray that God bless you for the next five years and beyond.
HAPPY ANNY HUNNIES!!!
To the both of you: we wish you God's everlasting presence in your relationship with each other! May He be the one chord that binds & keeps you - truly being "two made one". (Think of the shape of a triangle. You being at one end, C at the other. As you get closer to God at the top of the triangle, you will become closer to each other!)
To A: May you always seek first God's love and put Him above all else, even your husband & children. For without His strength and wisdom, you can not be the wife & mother He has called you to be.
To C: May you continue following God and receive His guidance. For without Him, you can not be the priest of the household and lead your family into holiness.
We love you both! - R & A ;)
