Anniversary Post
Happy fourth wedding anniversary Christy Ann Martine I love you so much. 💕 After so many years of long-distance, it's wonderful to be settled into our beautiful life together with you in Canada. 🇨🇦
I love our long walks around the lake, and how you walk around the world in wide-eyed wonder, noticing the little things in life that other people miss. I love the way we always laugh together and find humour in everything, even when times get hard. We have come to understand one another in ways that nobody else does.
I love our mornings writing poetry together ✍️, our nights watching movies. 🍿 The interesting conversations that stimulate our minds and imaginations. The joyful moments we share each day have become my comfort. Our relationship is truly unique and wonderful. 💕
I'm grateful for your enduring love that has transformed my life in so many ways. Every day, you inspire me to be a better man and husband.
Thank you for being my "Undeniable Miracle." I look forward to the new memories we will make as we fill our lives with love and laughter. 💖🌹

A Poem About the Beauty of Letting Go
Some endings don’t come to break us, but to prepare us for better things. Like leaves in autumn, there’s a quiet grace in learning to let go.
Life Is Breath on Windowpanes
Life is breath on windowpanes, we trace our hearts into the gray, while knowing time will fade it all away. - John Mark Green

With grief, there are no right words. Only the quiet presence of those who care. 💙
