3 year mark

3 years.

36 months.

156 weeks.

1095 days.

They all add up to the amount of time that T and I have been married.

It's been bliss.  It's been work.  It's been passion and love.  It's been happy summers and long school days.  It's been once a week mac and cheese nights.  It's been first-time gardening.  It's been days of service.  

There have been days of frustration and irritation.  We've learned from our mistakes and moved forward through our weaknesses.  Our strengths have added to our relationship.  "Mine" and "Yours" has been combined to "ours."  

I can honestly say that I've never had more fun than I have being married.  T is my best friend.  He truly is my everything.  He knows exactly what buttons to push to make me irritated, but he also knows exactly what to do to make me feel loved and appreciated.

I love him.   He's my dreamboat.  

Today he surprised me with a beautifully sentimental gift that I will treasure throughout our marriage.

It came in this box...

It's something you can wear around your neck...

It's a gorgeous heart charm.  If you look a little closer you can see a special engraving on the inside of the heart...

T had it engraved to say, "T's pretty girl."  It's an adorable endearment that T calls me.  I've always been his "pretty girl."  And for a girl that hasn't always been confident about how she looks, he's the best confidence boost.

T woke up to a special gift, too!  

His very own iPod Nano. He wanted the smaller size to wear in a watchband and to run with.  He was one happy and surprised hubby this morning!

T spoiled me even further with fresh tulips when I got home from S.E.P conferences today!  He has classes until 8:30 tonight and he was so sweet to let me know that he was still thinking of me.  Doesn't get much better than that.

It's been a great 3 years.  

I'm so excited to see what the next 3 years brings us.  It's going to be good.

I just know it.
