Happy Ninth Anniversary

in #poetry5 years ago (edited)

The years are flying by, much too quickly. It seems like yesterday we were celebrating the occasion with your Mom and Martese at Moscow on the Hill.

When we began our life together I had no idea that what the next year or even the next day would bring. I had no idea how we would make all of these wonderful dreams of ours come true (remember our dream of moving to Santorini?)

One thing I was sure of is I found someone beautiful and wonderful to navigate the many minefields of life and celebrate the joys with.

That Swedish proverb couldn’t be more true, “Shared joy is a double joy; shared sorrow is half sorrow.”

At its heart marriage is about sharing the seconds, minutes and days of our lives and everything that comes with it. We’ve seen our share of struggle but we’ve always gotten through it together.

Life has unfolded in some pretty wild and wonderful ways that we never could have predicted. I still can’t believe it sometimes. Through it all we’ve helped each other stay grounded, learn, and grow. Life feels so complete because of you.

Here’s to many more years of love, happiness, and adventure. I just hope it doesn’t go too fast.

I love you very much! Happy Anniversary! ❤️

Happy 9th anniversary @ericvancewalton, wish you and your dearest wife many more happy years together! You are blessed indeed having found your soulmate, beautiful words :)

Happy anniversary, Eric! <3 From all I've read from you, you sound like a really happy man :D And I'm glad you found someone who makes you so, you deserve it!

Great date, my friend and I congratulate you on her! You are right, we cannot know what lies ahead for us, and it is all the more pleasant that after so many years you have kept warm and sincere feelings. Well done! Thank you Eric

Thanks for your kind comment @serkagan!

Congratulations, may love always reign among you 💗

Happy Anniversary sir.

When you have the love of your life by your side than Time does really pass by without even noticing :)

Wish you both spend a lot of lovely time in your coming days and treasure each and every moment of your life.

Congratulations! Marriage can take intentionality and effort, but it's one of the best things a person can experience in life. When you're with someone who is working with you toward the same goals, it's beautiful and safe.

Here's to many more happy years together for you two!

Thank you, man! The words you speak are true!

When love is beautiful the years seems to go by very very fast, it's such a beautiful thing, wow what a love story, congratulations my friend!

As they say, time flies when you're having fun! Thanks @josediccus.
