one whole year

dear mr hutchins,
we were married one whole year ago today

ain't it grand that we didn't meet on a reality dating tv show?

i think so too.

sometimes, usually when you're at work and i'm at home on my lonesome, killing time and playing hard to get with the chocolate in the fridge, i think about the time before i met you. before i called you mine. i used to chat to God about you, well not you specifically, but you know what i mean. i didn't usually hear much back, other than be patient which is clearly my strong suit

now. on the flip side of the whole marriage thing.

i can hear what God was saying that whole time. 

"oh naya my girl, i know him already, and made him just with you in mind! i'm so excited for you two to get to know each other, just you wait my girl, you will love him"


now a year on, God's probably pretty chuffed with himself because we worked out so darn well, huh? you know the ranting satisfaction i get when i set up two friends and it actually works out? imagine how God must feel!

do you remember our wedding day bear? in case you've forgotten here 
is my favourite photo from the day

just kidding, but we're pretty darn popular in the under two demographic, huh?

okay okay, i'm still kidding, but look how confused we are!

this is my actual favourite

i still look up to you bear. thank you for our love story
