Derek,
Even though 6 years isn't that long; I think that the amount of hills and valleys we have walked together in that time could make up about 15 years! But despite AND because of so many things we have been through, you have become, and have remained so many amazing things to me.
You...
-are my bestest friend.
-are the one I love to dream with.
-are my favorite person to travel and explore with.
-make me laugh.
-can make me snap out of my funks.
-are willing to do things you hate for me... ie: cooking and folding laundry.
-are my favorite person to be myself with.
-are as hot as you were the day we got married!
-are my shoulder to cry on, and man I've had to use that shoulder a lot these past few years.
-take me shopping and actually enjoy it!
-have SO much strength that I rely on all the time.
-were the best labor coach I could have asked for... twice!!
-love me even when I am cranky.
-are my tv watching buddy.
-believe in my dreams... as crazy as they may be!
-are incredibly committed to our family.
-know that getting me a mocha can always brighten my day
-are a servant through and through, not only to me but to my family, your friends and pretty much anyone who has a need.
-make me smile anytime I see or hear you playing with our kids. You are a GREAT dad!
-are a man of integrity no matter the situation.
-let me be a ham. :)
-make tough choices with resolve
-are teaching Jackson how to be a man of honor even at age 3.
-challenge me to grow in areas that I need to.
-keep our bed warm and cozy at night.
-learn from your mistakes
-are a leader for our household that I am happy to defer to.
-and I are walking this journey of faith together, and I thank God everyday that I have a husband that fears the Lord!
Thank you for 6 incredible years so far! And particularly in these past 3 years that have been the most difficult AND exciting of our lives, thank you for never giving up. I love you.
I wanted to post a wedding pic, but I couldn't seem to find a good one (I've got like 8 cds of images that aren't really in order), so here is one I love from our honeymoon. Do we look younger?

Happy Anniversary my love!

Congratulations, Happy Anniversary, Merry New Year, Feliz Navidad,, (oops, got carried in my excitement *smile*)
Seriously, each time I visit your blog, I leave feeling inspired, connected, hopeful, happy, and sometimes warm from the tears streaming down my face. You two are such a blessing to our photog community.
Here's to a lifetime of hills, valleys, love, growth, and mochas...CHEERS!!!!
(I'm gonna have to buy mascara in bulk now, you know that stuff is expensive, right?) *snerk*
