At the age of 20, I packed up and moved across the country to Washington. I didn’t plan on staying for long, but then I met Mike and by the next year we were married.

Ten years, two kids, and seven addresses later; I am humbled by the fact that I can still say that I am happily married. Thank you husband for your love and loyalty. For the laughter with our kids, for supporting our family, and leading us through the tough times with gentleness and strength. Being with you makes me a better person. I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Happy Anniversary and here’s to another 10.
