I seriously can’t believe that Toby and I have just celebrated our four year anniversary together. This is probably going to be a bit of a soppy post (sorry!) but I wanted to dedicate a post just to him, as I don’t quite think he realises how much he means to me.
We were first introduced to each other through an old mutual friend in August 2011, not long before we were due back for our second year at college. We hit it off instantly and we just loved spending time with each other. (Little did I know, we’d still be together now and have a two year old daughter!) I think we ‘officially’ got together around two or three weeks after meeting each other. I’ll be honest, the beginning of the relationship wasn’t that easy, as I had just suddenly lost my best friend and I was struggling to come to terms with it, but he was there for me whenever I needed him, even if it was in the early hours of the morning.
It’s quite weird thinking about how long ago that was actually, four years have flown by, but it’s amazing to see how far we have come (four years, three homes and a baby in case you were wondering). Admittedly, we sometimes argue and annoy each other and we’re probably like a married couple already haha! But I think we’ve been through so much together and we know so much about each other that we just sort it out, life’s too short isn’t it?
We’re so similar too and have the same sense of humour, I think that’s why we get on so well. He’s like my best friend too, he makes me laugh so much and I tell him everything (even if most of the time I’m sure he isn’t listening haha). We’ve spent so much time together, that he genuinely knows more about me than I do myself. He’s also seen me at my very lowest and has stuck by me, when I’ve been struggling with Post Natal Depression. I just can’t imagine my life without him and I’m so thankful for everything he does. I honestly think we’re made for each other and we’re soul mates. He’s a great Daddy to Sophie and I can’t wait to spend the rest of our lives together with our own little family.
So Toby, if you’re reading this. Thank you. For everything. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me and I love you more than you will ever know.
