When I look back in time, it is hard for me to remember a time when Lester was NOT an important part of my life. It has been about 7 years now, and although we have only been married for a few months of that, he has always been there whether i liked to admit it or not. For this reason, I assumed that now that we are FINALLY married, this Valentine’s day was going to be the best one ever.
However, between Lester’s dedication to school, his callings and everything else, and even despite my constant reminders haha, it quickly became apparent that this day was going to be like any other day-which means me with the TV in the living room, cleaning, cooking and chilling all by myself. Although I know that he has his reasons, I’m not gonna lie, I was feeling a little sorry for myself. I found it ironic that after all these years, wishing and hoping that things would work out, that now we were here and this was the most uneventful Valentine’s that we were ever going to have! And then I realized something.
Looking through all the pictures that we have taken throughout the years, I realized how lucky and unique it is to have had so many incredible and perfect valentine’s days with him already in life! He has set the bar so high, that as the years go on it gets more and more impossible to top it. Our whole romance, he has spoiled me with flowers, chocolates, dates, shopping, attention, love and all other good things. But that is nothing compared to the love and life that he is giving me now. So even though this DAY might not be as fancy as our last seven or so have been, this YEAR and this life will be, and already is far times more wonderful, exciting and fulfilling.
Here are some fun old pictures of our life so far:
