“Those who have never known the deep intimacy and the intense companionship of mutual love have missed the best thing that life has to give.” – Bertrand Russell
Every year I dedicate a post to celebrate the anniversary of our marriage. This year it feels a bit different. Around this time we’re usually jet setting, travelling to a new destination to get away from reality, spending time exploring new places together. Even though travel for leisure is basically banned right now due to the pandemic, we wouldn’t have been going anywhere too far anyway because I’m 33 weeks pregnant! I would be lying if I said I’m not sad we’re unable to travel, but I have completely accepted it; Brandon and I are actually embarking on the biggest adventure of our lives! This pregnancy has brought us even closer together, which I honestly didn’t know could have been possible. It may sound cheesy and cliche, but my love and admiration for Brandon has grown, as he has been so incredibly supportive. He may not fully understand what it is like for me to be pregnant and the physical changes I’m going through, but he does his best. Emotionally, I would be an absolute disaster without Brandon by my side. There is one thing I know for certain, and that is Brandon is going to be the best father ever.
Cheers to seven years of marriage, Brandon! My love for you continues to grow and I look forward to sharing our love with our baby girl in September!
