Five years ago, today I married you, the love of my life.

Five years ago, today I married you, the love of my life. It has been the best decision I’ve ever made after deciding to following Christ. You have brought joy, comfort, love and peace to my life and our family. Your gentleness and kindness with our children and me is amazing.

I love the way you lead our family, the way that you provide for us. You set a great example for our kids in modeling grace, wisdom, humility, forgiveness and love. My life is so much better now that you are a part of it. The past few years have been such a whirlwind of fun.

I pray that God will continue to bless our family, help us to grow closer and help us through the rough times. I pray that as a team, we can do something good in this crazy world.

Thank you for being my perfect match. I love you so much and I am so happy to celebrate our 5th anniversary with you!

Love,
Rachel
