2 years



It is crazy to think that two years ago at this very moment I was putting my wedding dress on getting ready to be sealed to my best friend for all eternity. The past two years have been the best years of my life. Lee and I have grown to appreciate each other
and to love each other more than we ever thought it was possible.

For our first dance as man and wife, Lee and I chose "Unforgettable", for no specific reason really, only because we both liked it and it is a very sweet song.

Just after this past Christmas, I was watching the classic movie, The Sound of Music. I Love it, and what girl doesn't?! The part where the Captain realizes that he loves Maria is one of my favorites and as I was listening to the lyrics of their love song to each other, I sat there wishing I had considered that song for our first dance. The lyrics are perfect and simply romantic!

"Something Good"
[Maria:]
Perhaps I had a wicked childhood
Perhaps I had a miserable youth
But somewhere in my wicked, miserable past
There must have been a moment of truth

For here you are, standing there, loving me
Whether or not you should
So somewhere in my youth or childhood
I must have done something good

Nothing comes from nothing
Nothing ever could
So somewhere in my youth or childhood
I must have done something good

[Captain:]
For here you are, standing there, loving me
Whether or not you should

[Maria:]
So somewhere in my youth or childhood
I must have done something good

[Maria and the Captain:]
Nothing comes from nothing
Nothing ever could

[Maria:]
So somewhere in my youth
[Captain:]
Or childhood
[Maria:]
I must have done something . . .
[Maria and the Captain:]
Something good.

Lee, today I feel like The Grinch where his heart grew three sizes. I always dreamed of being a wife one day, but never thought I could love anyone this much or be as happy as I am with you. Thank you for making me smile and laugh everyday. I LOVE YOU!!! Happy Anniversary!
