Three years of: love, growth, strength, and perspective. We are blessed to have had these days together, to be in one another’s life, and to know each other deeply while, at the same time, uncovering just a little bit more of each other every day.
Driving home, I realized that the past three years haven’t been that hard. The hard parts are worth it because we are working to achieve something great: a relationship made of substance. And there is a lot of fun to be had along the way, too. Simply put, the song “Wild Heart” by Bleachers sums it up perfectly:
Well, everything has changed
And now it’s only you that matters
I will find any way to your wild heart
Whether I feel happy, sad, angry, or joyful, my son is gasoline to my fire. His mere existence ignites the spirit within me. The relationship between mother and young child is a beast: neither of us know where the day will lead us, but we always know that we will move through it, together.
Thank you for three magical years of true love.
There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One is roots; the other, wings. Hodding Carter
