The fastest four years of my life...

Four years ago, on this exact date, I married my BEST friend and the LOVE of my life, Jonathan Brian Dickinson. As I'm typing this blog, I still am in disbelief that four years have come and gone. It'll be interesting to go back and read this on my 25, 50, and God-willing, 75th wedding anniversary. I know exactly what I'll be thinking... "Man, we look so young!", "Wow, if only I were still that thin!", and "Why didn't I tell Jon to cut his hair before the wedding?!" The reason I know that I will think those things at my 25, 50, and 75th wedding anniversary is because I'm thinking that NOW at my 4 year wedding anniversary! God has been so good to us. In the four years that we've been married, we've had our fair share of arguments, a normal amount of disgruntlement, and plenty of angry moments. However, we've been overly blessed with an abundance of love, joy, LAUGHTER, and time together. I will be the first person to say that marriage is not always a fairy tale. It's something that I've learned is the hardest and easiest thing I've ever done in all of my life. As hard as it is, it is a lot like motherhood. It's a hard job, but the benefits are more than a hundred percent worth it.

I'm so thankful that God placed such a wonderful, Godly, honest, funny man to be my husband for the rest of our lives. Thank you, Lord.

When you have to look away

When you dont have much to say

Thats when I love you

I love you, just that way

To hear you stumble when you speak

Or see you walk with two left feet

Thats when I love you

I love you, endlessly

And when your mad cause you lost a game

Forget Im waiting in the rain

Baby I love you,

I love you, anyway

Cause here's my promise made tonight

You can count on me for life

Thats when I love you

When nothing you do can change my mind

The more I learn, the more I love

The more my heart cant get enough

Thats when I love you,

When I love you, no matter what

So when you turn to hide your eyes

Cause the movie it made you cry

Thats when I love you

I love you a little more each time

And when you cant quite match your clothes

Or when you laugh at your own jokes

Thats when I love you

I love you, more than you'll know

And when you forget that we had a date

Or that look that you get when you show up late

Baby I love you

I love you, anyway

Heres my promise made tonight

You can count on me for life

Thats when I love you

When nothing you do can change my mind

The more I learn, The more I love

The more my heart cant get enough

Thats when I love you,

When I love you no matter what

Thats when I love you

When nothing baby

Nothing you do could change my mind

The more I learn, The more I love

The more my heart cant get enough

Thats when I love you,

When I love you no matter what

No matter what
