Happy nine year anniversary, Baby Doll! Can you believe it has been nine years since we first hooked up? You gave me a note that said, “I think I might be falling for you, and I like it. If I ask, will you be mine?” And then I called you when I got home from school immediately to say “yes” a hundred times. And it’s still a hundred times “yes.” I loven you, Baby Doll. You’re the greatest! I can’t wait to get home and fix dinner with you, curl up with you to watch a movie and get my husband-man all to myself. We’ve been together a third of our lives, and here’s to spending the rest of our lives together. My tribute to my silly-headed moo-man:

Time flies…:
Awesome! I remember when you guys weren't yet dating and I noticed the sparks that you both hadn't acknowledged yet… I just knew that something would come of it, and I don't think I have ever known two people that were so made for each other! 🙂
Awwwww…..:
That's so cute.
Ahahaha:
And how cute that it took my jealousy and /jealousy tags out because they were in angle brackets!
Congrats:
Congrats. I'm not sure what comment to add here.

It's like two bunnies in some teacups, or something like that. Congrats, you guys.
