Ten beautiful years ago, we said our I Do’s and after all was said and done, and my knees stopped shaking, I realized that something I knew would happen, yet still longed for every second of every day, had just come to pass. I landed the perfect man. WHAAAAAT? How did I do that? I don’t know, sorry. I’m not perfect. In fact, I’m so far from it that I’m not even in the competition and yet, he chose me too. Shocked, bewildered, incredibly thankful and humbled, we set sail, officially together.
Ten years later, we haven’t changed…at all! We still scare and prank each other, love animals, spoil our kiddos, buy too many plants, daydream, get our feet tangled up and laugh until our we nearly pass out. He teaches me something new every single day. He is my idol and best role model in patience, love, kindness and gratitude that I will ever see.
He has accomplished so many monumental achievements both professionally and personally and is respected and sought after for his knowledge and advice internationally. Yes, I am bragging because I am so proud of him and am humbled to call him my husband and partner in crime. Our life is a whirlwind of activities and responsibilities and yet I’ll wake up in the middle of the night to him rubbing my back to make sure I sleep well, he’ll walk in from work with an arm full of groceries and hand me a huge bouquet of flowers “just because I love you” he says.
He is everything I have ever wished for and 10 years is just a tiny piece of eternity that I want to share with him.
I love you more than I will ever be able to explain, Matthew Slater! Thank you for day in and day out of a perfect life. Happy anniversary, my beautiful, handsome, perfect husband!!
