Two years ago today I began dating my wonderful husband-t0-be.
A year and 9 months ago we fled the country together. (Okay, Niagara Falls)
A year and a half ago I move 450 miles from Pittsburgh to Chicago to be with him.
A year and 3(ish) months ago we helped his parents pack up their house and move to Florida.
A year ago he asked me to marry him.
And a week later we went to Florida for vacation
Just a few months ago we had our 15 minutes of fame when the Redeye featured us in an article.
For the third year in a row, I rang in the new year with him. (I still count the first year even if it was over the phone. We counted down in BOTH timezones-it totally counts)
Last week at work he sent me 2 dozen roses and a half a dozen of calla lilies.
And in the past 24 hours he’s treated me to Avatar 3D in IMAX, dinner at the Melting Pot, a night at the Trump Tower, and an afternoon at the Shedd Aquarium.
Tell me I am not the luckiest woman alive.
It’s been a whirlwind 2 years, but it’s been so worth every second.
