"Grow old along with me. The best is yet to be."
-Robert Browning



10 years ago today, you changed me from a Miss to a Mrs.
We stood before God, our family, and our friends as we entered into our marriage covenant.
I chose you and you chose me.



I knew that I loved you long before I ever should have.
When we got married, I was only 20 and you were 21.
We were babies.
But, we got to grow up together.
I wouldn't have it any other way.



You have been so patient with me as I learned
(and am still learning) to be your wife.
You are the definition of "slow to anger."
Nothing ruffles your feathers.
You are the most even keeled person on the planet.
For the life of me, I cannot understand that characteristic of yours.
But, I love it and benefit from it daily.



10 years later, I still choose you.
I'll never quit on you.
You're still my favorite person of all time.
When something great happens, you are the one that I want to celebrate with.
When something awful happens, you are the one that I want reassuring me that everything will be alright.
I'm still crazy about you.

I love you more today than I did yesterday,
but not as much as I will tomorrow.
