“It seems like only yesterday when we were talking at your birthday party till 3 a.m. I wasn’t listening to whatever you were saying. I was just staring at your face thinking ‘why not? he seems like a nice man.’ Fast forward to today and we are celebrating our 3rd year together,” she said.
“I thank God [every day] for giving me a good man. A man who will fight for me, take care of me and see me through the tough times,” she wrote. “I know in my heart you are the one for me. Who would’ve thought? Happy anniversary my love. I love you with all that I am.”
