Well, We made it 4 years. It's crazy to think that it's been that long. Time has flown by and it's gone by even faster since we started having kids. There's nothing that I value more than our family. My love for you grows each and every day and I can't imagine life without you. Even though there are times when I want to get away by myself and blow off some steam, I still love you! It's those hard times that bring us even closer. I can honestly say that you're my best friend in the world and I wouldn't change that for anything.
I love thinking back to when we first met. I'll always remember how fast you and your friend's heads snapped back as you passed me in the parking lot of the offices. Not that I'm being cocky or anything, but you have to admit, it was pretty funny. The next 6 months were some of the funnest of my life before I left for the mission.
Thanks for waiting for me... at least for the first little bit anyways. I always knew in the back of my mind that you'd still be there when I got home. Even though you did Dear John me. It's all good though 'cause the day I got the letter, me and 5 other elders spent a couple hours throwing darts at your picture. We couldn't quit until we got both of your eyes. Your right eye was pretty elusive for quite a while, but someone finally nailed it.
Seriously though, Thanks for all you do. I couldn't ask for a better wife/best friend/mother to my kids. We've got the cutest kids around for sure and I credit it to you. You're a knockout and you've passed it down to our kids. You're an awesome mom. Our kids love you and you do so much to make sure that they are always having fun. Kenedee idolizes you. I hope she turns out just like you. Maybe not so much when it comes down to your OCD with cleaning, or your constant back-seat driving, but everything else for sure.
Thanks for being understanding when I want to take off and go golfing with the guys or hunting with my brothers, or doing home improvement projects when you think it's not neccesary. Really, just thanks for putting up with me. I know it's hard sometimes.
I Love You Bobby and can't wait for the next 4 years.. heck lets make it 40..
-Your Best Friend,
-Nate
