Seven Years

My Dearest Matthew,

On this, the seventh anniversary of our wedding, I wanted to take a moment out of our busy lives to tell you how thankful I am for you and everything you do for me and our family. I also want you to know how much I truly love you.

Who could have imagined on that February night at Hooter's when our paths first crossed that we would be married and raising our family together? Who could have imagined the love that took hold and blossomed into what we have today? I know that I definitely wouldn't have thought any of this possible that night.

You have brought so much happiness, laughter, fun, peace, friendship and love into my life. Thank you. Before you, I didn't understand how strong the love between a woman and a man could be. Thank you. I always wanted to be a mother and wife. Because of you am I both. Thank you.

You have given so much to me. Your name, your family, your love, and so much more. You take care of me in more ways than I could ever explain. You give me comfort when I am sad, a smile to cheer me up, a hand to hold when I need reassurance, a hug and a kiss when I need love. You give me a warm and swollen heart when I see you playing or cuddling with the kids. You give me peace and quiet when the world (or the kids) have just been too much. I only hope that I give to you as much as you give to me.

I have so enjoyed these past seven years and I if we are together 107 it still won't be enough. You are my best friend and soul mate. I am so thankful for you!! I love you with all of my heart, mind, body and soul. I would gladly say my wedding vows to you every day and mean every word once again.

Love always,
Lora
