That it has been 10 years since Peach and I took our vows on Dewey Beach is almost incomprehensible. In some ways it seems like I could just reach back and touch those moments in the sand- but in other ways, its as if it has been a lifetime. We've grown so much in the last decade- becoming parents, four times over, buying three homes, including the one we're currently living in. Of course, as in life, all has not always been easy. We've persevered through our own share of difficulties, sometimes wondering how life had gotten so hard, but always, in the end, finding ourselves loving one another better.

Tom is one of the most intelligent people I know. He is also one of the most thoughtful, giving, and patient spirits, and I am truly honored that he chose ME as his companion for life.

I could never imagine the joy that being married to this man has brought me and I never, ever want to know a life without him.

Here's to ten more years and beyond.
