234

Happy monthly anniversary, my love. We are at the darkest part of the year, the shadow version of the time when got married in the lightest part of the year. It’s now also the monthly anniversary closest to Christmas and the start of a new year. It’s the time when you look forward and put the old year behind you. You close the door on it and see the turning of the year as a new beginning, when everything is fresh from the bumps and bruises from the previous year. And yet we exist in that space where we have a history that gives us a thread through time. We put old years behind us, but we mark milestones. Next year, we celebrate 20 years of marriage. We don’t put those behind us. We add on, we take pride in that. It is the story of us.
