Today is Reed and my 8 year wedding anniversary. I cannot believe that 8 years ago today I was lucky enough to get to walk into the temple with Reed, kneel across the alter from him and know that I was going to be able to spend the rest of eternity with him. The thought still amazes me. I feel truly lucky that I was able to marry such a good man. Not only is he my best friend, but he is an amazing father. He makes me laugh, he is my shoulder to cry on, my rock to gather my strength. He supports me in anything I could ever want to do, and every day tells me that I am special and that he loves me. I really don't know how I could have gotten so lucky. I feel amazed that Heavenly Father knew me so well that there could actually be someone out there for me who was so perfect in every way I needed. Because, come on, if I was going to design my 'perfect man' does anyone in the family really think I would have chosen someone who was so into football? And yet, I have found over the years that Reed and I are a better fit than I could ever have imagined or hoped for. He makes all my weaknesses better just by being there and I fervently hope that in some small way I do the same for him. I love you Reed. Thank you for choosing to spend eternity with me. Thank you for being such a good father and giving me the most wonderful little boy I could ever have asked for. Happy Anniversary!
