Happy 2 year wedding anniversary to us

Today is our 2 year wedding anniversary.  Warning: This might get a little mushy.  Everyday I get to spend with him feels like a fairy tale.  

Seriously, I don't know how I ended up with such a compassionate, honest, loving man.  I did everything you are told not to do when we were dating.  I didn't play the games, I just put myself out there.  I knew from the minute I laid eyes on him he was the one I was suppose to be with.  I made my intentions known to anyone and everyone.  At times (most times), it made me come across as the crazy girl that I am.  Before I met Husband, I rarely even thought about getting married.  I thought about being some successful single,  entertainment executive.  Thoughts of marriage and family were very foreign.  Now here I find myself, loving every minute of married life.  Here were some of my forbidden dating tactics that somehow resulted in a happy marriage of 2 years and counting.

• Flew across country 3 weeks after meeting him at a wedding.  He lived in Grand Rapids, MI and I was somewhere in Texas.  I flew to Chicago and took a 5 hour train ride to Grand Rapids.  It is only a 3 hour drive.  That was the slowest and worst train ride I had ever been on.  I paid for the ticket with my credit card.  I was unemployed at the time.  NOT CRAZY GIRL:  A normal girl would have made him come visit her or at least have him help with the cost of travel.  Not me, no sir.  It was all me.  
• We were long distance for the first 2 years never officially dating.  I never dated anyone else in these 2 years even though husband directly told me multiple times that he only saw me as a good friend and did not see a long term romantic relationship happening.  NOT CRAZY GIRL:  A normal girl would have continued dating other potential suitors at the same time as talking to a guy across country. 
• I moved across country. Twice.  The first time we weren't even dating and the second time we had officially been dating for 3 months.   NOT CRAZY GIRL:  A normal girl would've kept herself put in her safe, stable environment. 

This is all I am willing to share for the time being, but the list goes on.  I guess my point is that I am someone that can't help but follow her heart in everything I do.  I have to say, following my heart has lead me to this wonderful, daily, happiness I never thought possible.  

I almost forgot to mention the newest addition to our family this year.  I also never knew I was an animal person until our sweet Journey came into our lives.
