I never would have thought that I would marry this man.

I never thought that I would meet the love of my life in the college dorms.

Yet, the very first time I met him and locked eyes with him, I knew that there was something.

I never thought that we would spend the rest of our lives together at that time.

I never thought that our friendship would turn into a love story.

I never thought that I would fall so madly in love.

Or learn so many new things.

And learn to be comfortable out of my element.

In 1997, I found my soul mate.

In 2001, we were married.

And now, eight years after we were married...still us, but with two lively little girls.

I never would have thought. Not in a million years.

And I'm so glad that love knocked me down back then, because I sure would be missing out on three people that mean the world to me, who I could never live without.

Happy anniversary, Josh....I love you now, and forever.
