Today is our second anniversary. It sounds so little. I suppose it is really. But a lot has happened in two years...
We've lived in three different homes, and shared two of them - one with a friend, and now with hubby's brother. We've moved from one end of the south coast to the other. Between us we've had about nine jobs and both spent time being unemployed too. We've covered a lot of miles, on buses, trains, bicycles, foot and more recently by car and moped. We've had long hair and short hair, been tattooed, worn holes in our clothes and our shoes.
We've cried (well, I have) A LOT. We've faced depression and death, more than once. We've had to say goodbye to best friends but we've made new friends too. We've swam in the sea, attempted to surf, stood on cliff tops, danced stupidly, gone to weddings, met friends' babies, barbequed, cooked countless good meals for ourselves and others, drunk quite a bit of beer, watched a lot of films and all of The Wire and New Girl and Master Chef (!). We've put on weight and then tried to lose it again. We've upset each other and misunderstood each other. We've gotten angry. We've wondered why. But more often than that we've hugged and we've learned and we've stepped a bit closer, and we've prayed and we(i)'ve cried some more, and we've laughed and we've kissed and we've held each other.
And we've held each other.
These are our cards to each other, perhaps they say it all better than words can
