God Gave Me You...

Dear Brad -

Even though I'm in Atlanta, I want to wish you (us) a HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! I can't believe that 10 years ago today, I had the most amazing opportunity to not only marry my very best friend, but the most incredible loving father. I feel so blessed to have you right next to me each step of our crazy journey together. I'll need your music skills to get it up on the blog, but the Blake Shelton (or Dave Barnes) song, "God Gave Me You" describes exactly how I feel. I love you with my entire heart and soul - thank you for being such an amazing husband.

I've been a walking heartache
I've made a mess of me
The person that I've been lately
Ain't who I wanna be

But you stay here right beside me
Watch as the storm goes through
And I need you

God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I've lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it's true
God gave me you

There's more here than what we're seeing
A divine conspiracy
That you, an angel lovely
Could somehow fall for me
You'll always be love's great martyr
I'll be the flattered fool
And I need you

God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I've lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it's true
God gave me you

On my own I'm only
Half of what I could be
I can't do without you
We are stitched together
And what love has tethered
I could baby, never undo

God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I've lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it's true
God gave me you, gave me you
Gave me you.
