14 years ago, became my wife and the journey began. It’s been a blessing, yet not always rainbows and butterflies. Marriage has its challenges and nothing is perfect. I love her today just the same as I did day 1. She is worth any challenges we come across and I will fight for us everyday, no matter what. I love you!

Special thank you to for FaceTiming with her for her anniversary gift.

6837480 minutes. 113958 hours. 4748 days. 156 months. All of these lead to 13 years. Happy anniversary to my beautiful bride. She is crazy…crazy to put up with me for that long. I don’t deserve her. I love her fierce heart and passionate soul. She does great at keeping our family on track and I’m so grateful for her. Happy anniversary. I love you
