2 years

Thursday, May 24, 2012

2 years ago this week, my love became my Groom...
and I his Bride
Being in love leads to one of the greatest things in the world; it makes you come alive. 
It lifts every thought off yourself and puts it entirely into another; you're so caught up in them and so desperately in love that you forget about your own self for a change and can think only of that one person. 
You come to find that true love is humble. 
I never could have imagined falling deeper in love with Cameron than I was on our wedding day. 
But. 
I did. 
And I do daily.
Marriage is the deepest, strongest most passionate bond I've ever known could exist. 
It's not natural to put the needs and desires and thoughts of your spouse before yourself; to be so caught-up in them that you're no longer in the center; to think only of your Love. But I think that's when marriage is the very sweetest. That's what we're learning. Losing yourself to find your spouse. 
It's how we're understanding the way Christ loves us moment to moment and what He wants from us.
And I have never been more desperately in love with my husband, or my Savior, than I am now. 

I love you forever my sweetheart! 
Happy two years!!

  3. Gosh but the two of you make such a stunning couple...happy anniversary!

    Talking to a friend yesterday she was telling me how her teenage daughter has fallen in love and how sweet it is. Afterwards I realised how I long to feel that feeling again but after reading your post I know that I long and pray for so much more!!

    May God continue to bless your union and may the years to come bring with them a tidal wave of joy, happiness, love and laughter!

  19. Happy anniversary!!! Love the pictures...you are two pretty people :)

    And I completely agree; there is nothing like marraige. And to have a further/deeper understanding of Christ's love for us is just mind boggling.

  23. Congratulations on two years. That is quite an accomplishment!

    I really loved when you wrote, "That's what we're learning. Losing yourself to find your spouse.
    It's how we're understanding the way Christ loves us moment to moment and what He wants from us.
    And I have never been more desperately in love with my husband, or my Savior, than I am now."

    So beautiful and sincere.
