"The Lucky One"

Hey everyone, 

I don't usually get sappy on social media but I feel the need to air this bit of information to you.

I got lucky over 7 years ago and was introduced to a woman named Jessica through a mutual friend of ours. Not to long after that  I married that same woman. I now have her, a couple room mates and a house full of animals that I wouldn't trade for the world. 

All of my teenage and young adult life before Jessica never thought that get married. Everyone I had a relationship with before her lacked a certain something that her and I have together. We are two very different people from two very different worlds but somehow we work. Funny how that works, right? It's still crazy to me that when any of our friends are having marital or just plain old relationship issues I explain to them "It should just be easy." That's a quote that Jess and I live by. I'm not saying we don't fight because that wouldn't be healthy but they are short and sweet. In the words of our room mate and friend Paige "They never fight about the same thing twice." which we both take as a compliment.

I'm probably not the guy she dreamed of being with, in fact I know I'm not because she has told me, Haha! I do know that I am the best guy for her though and that's why we keep going strong after almost eight years. 

She is my life, my love and my strength and I'm sure I don't tell her nearly enough. Thank you Jessica Casterlin for being so supportive of my dreams and thank you for being you.  

These are the lyrics to a beautiful song sang by Alison Krauss that should be the anthem to anyone who feels the same way about their wife, husband or partner!
