On This Day 10 Years Ago...
On This Day 10 Years Ago, August 2nd 2002...
...I started dating the man I was destined to marry.

...We signed the contracts to buy our first home
On This Day 4 Years Ago
...We got Married
We've been together for 10 years.
One third of my life.
The Happiest third.
I can't imagine what my life would be like now if I hadn't been introduced to Dave all those years ago, on July 19th 2002. If he hadn't finally gotten the guts to get my number and call me. Sometimes it's hard to comprehend all that has happened in the last 10 years. We're parents for heaven's sake!
And I don't want to imagine what life would be like.
I am seriously one of the luckiest women in the world to have found a man who is so good to me. He puts up with my crap. He looks out for me. He cooks dinner for me almost every night. He often does my washing for me.
He may not be big on the romantic side of things, but it's the little things he does that prove his love for me time and time again.
A love I often don't deserve. A love I've taken for granted on occasion. A love I've abused and treated poorly.
But even after I've treated him badly there is still that love. Through all the good times and the bad, we've stuck together. We've been honest with each other. But most of all we've accepted each other and supported each other, no matter what.
I am so lucky. The luckiest.
I love you Mr.P, with all my heart and soul, and I can't wait to spend the next decade and beyond together.
And by the way...
...You're Crazy!
For me, I think the key to our lasting relationship has been learning to let go of the anger, the hurts, the petty disagreements. Acceptance and a sense of humour. Support.
What do you think is the secret to a lasting relationship?

Haha, is that too corny??!!!
The sense of humour is definitely key. As well as acceptance and forgiveness. Oh, and he has to cook. I just won't last if he doesn't cook. You know you agree ;-)
I'd probably be almost dead if Dave didn't cook and you know it! It's lucky I'm so beautiful to make up for my cooking shortfalls! Lol!
