five years!

 ***

this was not a good week for us. you got into a car accident and we fought over money. i slept on the couch one night. and you let me. i woke up sorry. you woke up and told me you loved me. and our fight was over. our five year anniversary is today, but i wrote this post months ago. and now, reflecting on the week, i realize this. even when we fight, i still love you. and i give it the good fight because i know we will never give up on us. and there is no one i would rather fight with. i suppose that sounds horrible, but by now, i think you know what i mean. i love you. i promise someday i will slow down, fight less and relax. i think i have it in me, with you be my side.

in the past five years...

we got married...

and traveled to montreal...

we laughed a million times...

and cried a few...

we made two babies...

and a family!

we've made a name for ourselves. we are the cheeks. and i hope we get a very long happily ever after. because five years of being married to you feels like just the beginning. everyday is a new day with you in it. and life can't possibly get better than that.

so let's hang out for a very long time, ok?

i love you cheeky. happy anniversary.

xoxo, ME.
