11 years since he first put on his officer shoulder boards and almost 13 years in...
...so much for "Five & Dive"
(for all the civvies, we thought he'd serve his 5 year commitment and be out).
I can't even begin to count how much of our 11+ years together you've been in a tube under the sea or just in the tube docked at the pier...missing birthdays, holidays, anniversaries, entire seasons, scary moments, sad moments, happy moments, days/weeks/months of our children's lives, and narrowly missing the birth of our first child (and the ensuing hurricane).
I'm thankful for all that you do...without complaints.
I'm grateful that you never undermine the role of a military spouse, especially a submariner's wife, and how much we go through as "single married spouses/parents" in an isolated and secretive world.
I'm so proud of you and all that you do for us and our country.
Thank you.
I love you.

awww...how beautiful. and a beautiful picture as well. you guys are a gorgeous couple. Congrats!
Thank you BOTH... You made our decision to dive really hard... but we rest more easily at night knowing you're defending us in your own ways. We're lucky to have people like Sean and wives like you in our Navy.
Love.
