our anniversary. sometimes it doesn't seem like it was only 3 years ago. when you're with someone everyday (more or less) it seems like you've been with them forever. when you are apart it seems like forever that they are away. some days i think that it was just yesterday. i can remember hugging family and friends i hadn't seen in a long time. i can remember tim's face when he saw me in my dress. i remember sipping away at my cup of Starbucks. (i'm not sure that really helped with my nerves.) i remember now everything i forgot to bring with me that day.
now looking back i can tell you - don't stress the little things. there is not another one of you to run around and doing everything that needs to get done. that's what friends are for. even if it's not perfect - it's FINE! it's just a day. the vows, the symbols, the love are all that matter in the real world. in forty years no one is going to remember what your cake looked like unless they're looking at your pictures but they will remember the smiles and love expressed that day when they see you looking at your spouse with that same smile and same love.
now i will tell you. have a nice cake. have fun with decorations. LOVE your dress. enjoy that day. love your spouse more than the day before. (that is easier to type than to do some days :)) Celebrate life. Celebrate love. and take lots of pictures along the way.
