(Alert: this post will contain a bit of romantic cheese-whiz......consider yourself warned....)
Today, DJ & I celebrated 12 years of marriage. 12 years??? To those who have been married longer than that, I applaud you & encourage you to continue it on.....to those who have been married less than our 12 years, embrace today, because 12 years will be here before you know it!! & to those of you who aren't married yet.....brace yourself, because your time is coming.....
When I was a little girl, I wondered what kind of man I would marry. The possibilities excited me because it was a future of the unknown & a the expectation of something to look forward to. Sometimes I worried I would never marry!!!
Then I met DJ......I can't imagine my life without him. (I know, cheesy.....) So, I want to take this moment to publicly thank him.....so DJ, if you are reading this, I love you with all my heart. God answered my prayer when He allowed us to meet. You are my best friend, even on my worst day & my life would be empty without you. You are an awesome dad & helpmate & I am SO thankful that we were able to make our little family together. I look forward to MANY more years to come being with you & just as I did 12 years ago, I promise to support you & be with you always.......thank you for lifting me up when I am down, for taking care of me after my surgery & for being the first & only one I asked for when I was waking up in the recovery room. Thank you for being you....I certainly married up....
For those of you who are now gagging & making comments at how silly, romantic, mushy & unrealistic I am......TOUGH! (& as my Dad has always said, just consider the source)
& thank you for putting up with this cheese....it may be smelly, but it's heart-felt....

Happy Anniversary!
Happy Anniversary you two! I remember sitting in the congregation as newlyweds as you two said your vows. 12 years is certainly an accomplishment and I don't think you can make it without a little "cheese and romance". :)
Hope you had a great celebration!

I wouldn't say that DJ married down. So how can both of you "marry up"? Somehow you both found a way. Because you know "Love will find a way".
