Four years down, an eternity to go!

Today Jared and I are celebrating our anniversary! Is anyone else completely SHOCKED that it has been 4 years already? I know that I am! It is amazing how quickly time goes. There have definitely been some good times and some bad times, but I would never want to have shared it with anyone else. Do you know why Jared is perfect for me? Well, I'll tell you:

He's tall with long limbs and I love that he can wrap his arms so tight around me and make me feel safe...and petite!

He can color and cut my hair whenever I want.

He will dance with me in the kitchen, the living room, the bedroom, the car, wherever, and he'll dance crazy just to make me laugh.

He can handle my completely irrational mood swings and anxiety attacks so well that he makes me feel like I am NOT actually crazy :)

He makes me laugh harder than anyone else.

He is SOOOO NICE: to me, to my family, to everyone!

He is a worthy priesthood holder. I can't tell you what a blessing that is, especially growing up without having that in my home.

He listens to me. Even when I talk endlessly about how I am feeling, or what is happening at work, or my anxiety or whatever else is bothering me.

He loves to play volleyball; how perfect is that!?

He loves the Youth as much as I do.

He is unbelievably kind and forgiving. What a great combination for a husband :)

He gives GREAT massages and even better hugs!

I love all of these things about him and so many more that I could go on and on. The truth of the matter is that Jared is my best friend. Even 4 years in, I would love to spend time with him above anyone else. I can't wait to get a text or call from him when we are apart. I love just being together and holding hands. Jared, I love you and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you!
