3 years

husband,

three years ago i was lonely. i wanted someone to talk to. anyone. i met you. you were just some guy from syria. a science teacher. your english wasn't that good but i gave you a chance anyway. when you got my email address you disappeared. "oh, another dud," i thought. "someone here and then gone."

what if we could glimpse people's souls the instant we met them? dud? no, you were pure gold. but i was blind to it then. i had no idea of the vast beauty and gorgeous gentleness of you. i had no way to perceive your tender depths or your steady constant care. 

you have been a revelation to me. where i once was blind--now i see. thank God for opening my eyes to the treasure that is my husband. truly i am rich. 

three years is not enough. i plan to know you for eternities. i cannot get enough of knowing you, my love. happy 3 years of knowing. i rest safe in your care. i bask in your adoration. i blossom in your love.

 i love you with all my heart. (which is a lot) :)
