Happy Anniversary Smoochy! It may not be obvious to outside an observer that today is special to me, seeing how we’ve made no attempt to celebrate whatsoever.** But, the truth is I am wildly happy to have spent two whole years as your lawfully wedded wife. Nothing has changed since the moment of our wedding. Except if possible, I love you more deeply than I did that moment I screamed my vows and you sobbed yours. ;-)
It’s true, that our wild whirl-wind (drunken) courtship might not have been what most people would see as the precursor to a lasting and rock-steady marriage…but most people would be wrong. Right from the start of those hot summer nights in Georgia I knew you were a man worth holding on to. Maybe it was the soul stirring conversations we had under the star filled sky; maybe it was what a good friend and neighbor you were to all those around you; or maybe it was how great your butt looked in your kakis. Whatever it was, I had no hesitation about saying “I love you” the first week; getting a dog together the second; and moving in with you after a month…even though you were out to sea. Everyone must have thought we were crazy. In our case crazy works.
Engaged a year latter, married a year after that, and pregnant on our honeymoon. We’ve always known what we want and gone for it. Some people call us impulsive. I call us certain. With you, Jacob, there has never been any question in my mind: YOU ARE IT FOR ME.
Now two years later here we are a little older, a little fatter, and a whole lot more sober and it still works for us. Sure things have changed, but the thing that remains constant is our love and our friendship. You still make me laugh like no one else can; you are still the only person I wan to talk to when I’m in the dumps; and your butt still looks great (now in slacks!). Sure, we are only at the beginning of what (God willing) will be a long life together. And I look forward to it as much today as I did on our wedding day!
I LOVE YOU SMOOCHY!
**Turns out you did make an effort, thank you so much for my beautiful flowers and for making me feel like such a shlep for not even getting you a card! ;-) XOXOXOX

Very heartfelt Becca. I'm happy that we have both found the men that continue to take fond care of our hearts.
Congratulations!

Have a Great Anniversary!! Wow, time flies. Thank you for giving us a wonderful grandbaby and one on the way, can't wait!! Hope you do something special. Love,
Dad and Tracy
Congratulations!! Husband and I had a whirlwind courtship like that too.
We moved in together after three weeks, got engaged after 6 months and married almost exactly a year from the day we met. I got pregnant with Pre-Pubescent One 9 months later.
But we are coming up on our 14th anniversary (Sept 25), so don't pay any attention to the naysayers. When you know, you know.
I wish you and Smoochy many, many more happy anniversaries!
Beautiful Becca.. you guys are the best! I wish you guys a life of health and happiness together! Cheers!
Has it really been two years? It feels like yesterday yet like a million miles away....Congratultions to both of you!

[[For both of us--The Mistah proposed to me on our first date, more than 8 years ago.]]
I often wonder what would happen if people just went with their gut more often? In our cases, much happiness and adorable children happen.
