A Whole Decade
A whole decade (over 1/3 of my life) with one lucky guy. That’s right. 10 years ago today, I started dating Ryan.
It started with a few casual after-class dates–the kind that aren’t really dates–when you are hungry after class and have to eat somewhere that accepts your campus meal plan. After shopping with my roommate, I returned to my dorm room to a rose and a thoughtfully written card. Then, I was unable to find Ryan for 7 hours!!!! Later, I learned that he was hiding (perhaps from fear of rejection?), but I found him and never let go. I’m so happy to be married to my best friend and favorite Valentine.
Enjoy some photo from early in our relationship. The dark ages when people still used film and made photographic prints……

I hope you’re all lucky enough to be with your best friend forever.

Well, Dad. You’re my original Valentine. And you still hold the record for most consecutive years as my Valentine. And I love you.
