Today, July 27th, marks our second wedding anniversary.
By the time you are reading this, we will be home from our dreamy, sea-filled vacation on Prince Edward Island. (That’s right: if you guessed PEI as the answer to last week’s “mystery vacation” game, you WIN!) (My admiration and respect, that is. I’m sorry that there isn’t an actual prize. I’ll have to work on that!)
Last year I wrote about our hand-made wedding and about our first year of marriage. I was a little apprehensive going into the second year, because a lot of people say that it can be difficult. To those people I say: not true! While of course this past year had its ups and downs, being married to my thoughtful, caring, and loving husband only made the challenging parts easier and the happy parts more joyful. I am blessed.
cue: awwww
P.S. Thanks so much to everyone who has been responding to my 2015 Reader Survey! I really appreciate the feedback: please keep it coming! The survey only takes a few moments to complete but it will really help me to improve Flourish & Knot.
