I'm the Lucky One.

My 6 year wedding anniversary is coming up this weekend and while I'm sure you all think Oliver's the lucky one, I'm here to tell you why I'm the luckiest.

Oliver saved me from myself.
I was on a road of self destruction and couldn't make a good choice to save my life, literally. He was there for me when no one else was, he supported me, and he gave me the amazing life I have today. Sure I made these choices, but I can tell you without a doubt I would not be here if it wasn't for him.

He knows how to fight.
We fight, in fact we fight pretty regularly, but he never ever pulls crap out of the past and guilt's me. Oh he can sure piss me off, but we have a system; we fight, we separate, and a little while later he'll come over and ask if I'm done being a brat. Sometimes I am, sometimes I'm not. He also knows when to just let it go and when to apologize, like that time he got too drunk on our cruise and I lost him for 2 hours.

He's secure in himself.
He respects my opinion and has come to realize I give amazing advice. In fact he's even learned that I'm usually right, which I appreciate him admitting. He's smart, humble, and my biggest supporter.

He knows how to share.
I'll be honest, I thought most only children were spoiled brats, growing up in a family with four children, sharing was my middle name. That actually may explain why I hate to do it now :) Oliver is a giver and is really awesome at compromising {which we call 'lets make a deal' in my house}.

He's the Yin to my Yang.
Or wait, am I the Yin?? Either way I would be sacking groceries at 65 if it wasn't for his harping about my 401k contributions, weekly. I would also probably be so botoxed up my face wouldn't move. Kidding. Kinda. I definitely would be walking around with shoes, purses, and clothing that I couldn't afford. He grounds me, but also lets me be me when I need it.

So Oliver I'm a lucky girl to have found you. I'm even luckier that you are good looking.
I thank you for everything you did and still do for me and your reward is a fun wife who grows you cute babies. You're welcome.

Happy Anniversary Huggie ;)
