To The One I Know I Can't Live Without

Remembering Those Special Moments:

Here's one on our Wedding Day. He surprised me with a 'fairytale kiss'.

Date: 7 May 2005

They say that you don't marry someone you can live with, you marry the person who you cannot live without. That truly hits the nail on the head and how I feel as I ponder about the five years we've shared together. Marriage really isn't easy, there are always quarrels and disagreements. But I believe it as a lifelong commitment to work at being together and building each other to become better individuals when we are apart. A lifetime... When you think about it, it really seems difficult and awfully long. But at the end of the day, when you both share the same goals, desires and focus in life, marriage is a precious gift. God knows we all need company and support as we go through the ups and downs in life.

Here's to my sweetie pie and the one I can't live without:

I love you for being the man you are.

Quietly supportive. Generous in your love.

Always patient and always around.

Dependable and kind.

Thank you for putting up with my many idiosyncrasies and tolerating my short-temperedness.

Thank you for accepting the person I am and always patiently trying to correct my shortcomings. Thank you for loving me despite me being the imperfect person I am.

I love you for being a loving father, who's always there for our family.

I love you for always being willing to do more than what's your fair share - for helping out with household chores and looking after Claire when I'm tired or in need of a night out.

I love you because I know I will never find another who is perfect for me in every way.

Happy 5th Anniversary! And here's to many more...

xoxo, Jo
