So this is what I woke up to this morning!!!! I am such a lucky girl!!! Well today is Will and my 3rd anniversary and I wanted to do a blog this morning and talk about why I love Will and why I am such a lucky girlie!!!
Since I first hung out with Will before he headed to Iraq I knew there was something special about him that was going to touch my life forever. I didn't know that it was going to be that he would be my eternal companion but I did know that he had touched my heart in the short time we were able to spend before he left for Iraq. The day that Will left for Iraq it was my birthday and as soon as he left I cried for an hour and thank goodness I had my mom to help make me feel better. I felt like my best friend had left. While Will was in Iraq I got to know him through emails and phone calls. He always knew exactly what to say to me to lift me up and motivate me to be my best. I remember the first day we were able to get the webcams working and as soon as the picture cleared up and I saw his smiling face my heart melted and I knew that this was more than a friendship and that I wanted to spend my life with him. The time Will spent in Iraq was not always easy for our relationship by any means but it sure did make us realize the time we get to spend together is priceless. When he came home for leave in October and surprised me is probably one of my favorite memories I have. Will always told me that I should try out for the WNBA cuz I was soooo good enough to make it and he always told me to go to law school if I want to. I was never really confident that I could do either of those things but in Will's mind, he was positive I could accomplish anything. I love Will because he is such a hard worker and I know that I will never have to worry about money problems because he will always find a way to pay the bills and will never give up until we are taken care of . I love Will because he loves to help people and is soooo friendly. Wherever we move or wherever we live I have no worries that Will will ever be w/out friends. He is so outgoing and makes people feel so important! I love Will because he is a honest priesthood holder. There are many times this last year that he has given me blessings and that means the world to me. I love Will becuase he lets me dream and fulfill my dreams. I know it takes a lot for him to sit by and watch as I go to law school when he could be chasing his dreams but I appreciate it so much and I can't wait until I can work and provide for him to follow his dreams. I love Will because I know when the time comes he will be the BEST dad. I don't have to worry that he won't change diapers or help me when we have a baby...he will be the first one up in the middle of the night and the last one rocking our kids to bed. I love Will becuase he loves me for me. It's not always been easy being a 6' tall girl but Will has made me feel so comfortable about being me. I love that he always tells me to wear hills even though they make me taller than him cuz he loves it. He always tells me that one of the reasons he married me was because of my heart and because of my genes!! He loves that I am an athlete. Will lets me act like a 10 year old and goof off when I need to. Besides the fact that I think Will is the most handsome man, his heart is as big as can be. I have loved these last three years of my life and although there are challenges along the way there is no one I would rather be holding hands with facing these challenges than my WILLY!!! Happy 3rd Anniversary Willy...I love you forever and always!
Riding in the LIMO!
