Sara and I spent our five year anniversary in the place that we have spent a lot of the last five years, in the car driving. Really romantic huh! In the last five years we have driven across the country twice, and from Richmond to Palmyra, Manhattan, Niagara, Orlando, D.C., Baltimore, and all over the state of Virginia. Tanner and Jackson are not sure if they live in a house or a car seat. But our travels are not what this blog is about. I wanted to highlight some of my favorite things about my sweetheart. Please bear with me if this is cheesy or poorly written because I am not that good at communicating through writing, so here goes nothing.
Sara is the most loyal person I have ever met, she is so loyal that once you are true friends with her that friendship will never die.
She loves to travel and see new things, thus five years in a car.
She has the most infectious laugh that I know, while in the car somewhere in South Dakota she started laughing out loud and then I could not help laughing. We almost had to pull off, and probably should have, because by the time I stopped I could only see the freeway through my tears. Good thing we don't have to see any of those people in South Dakota again!!!
She is a wonderful mother to our children, I love to watch her with them they love her and she loves them. I can't count how many times she has gotten out of bed with our kids over the last four years, probably almost as much as she has been in the car!
She has been so supportive of me and my slow decision making, each time I decided to do something that will drastically change her life she has just said whatever you want to do will be good, with an added I know you can do anything that you set your mind to, even if that thing is just a pipe dream for me.
She is determined, as you can see she made it five years with me!!
As many of you know she is a wonderful listener and will alway take the time to try and understand me. Even if I am talking in circles like I often do.
She has this unconquerable faith in other people and in Her Father in heaven that is contagious.
She has taught me so much about respect for people, she truly looks on the inward parts of people and not their outward appearance.
She has also taught me to appreciate things that I may have taken for granted.
This may sound strange but she has opened up a whole new world of food to me. I ate sushi on our anniversary!!! And I liked it.
I love how she has helped me become so much more cultured than I was five years ago.
Sara and I love to chat with each other over the past five years we have tried so many nights to go to sleep early but we can't seem to get to bed because even though we have only spent a total of about six days apart (and those were hard days) we can't seem to find enough time to visit with each other during the day. I love her and I love being with her. I can't believe how lucky I am to have her in my life.
I hope this didn't come out to cheesy or seem like Sara's eulogy but I Just wanted everyone to know what she means to me.
I can't wait to see what the next five years bring.
Happy Anniversay Sara!! I love you
