Thank you, my love, for the past 10 years. Can you still remember the scene? Me picking you up for our first official date, after a month or two of casual gatherings; a lingering dinner at our fav place, Zemam's, and endless talk. I think we both knew that night a connection was made. We had our reasons to be cautious, both of us, but there was no denying that something was there. We've made it through all the usual ups and downs and oh, that year of separation while you were in Brooklyn! That was easy, though, in comparison to this HUGE life transition we've made, coming to Iceland to rediscover your roots and expose the boys and me to them as well. I'm trying, one day at a time, to make it a good experience for all of us.
Thank you for being the incredibly patient, loving, intelligent, helpful, sweet man that you are. Thank you for being such an amazing father to our boys, and to Brynja. I'm so grateful that you are in my life.
So, you won't be working late tonight as planned. I'll be picking you up a bit before five. Your brother is watching the kids for a couple hours, and we'll have a little time to mark this special day.
This is just the beginning of the rest of our life adventure together! I love you, now and forever.

Congratulations on your ten years! And thank you for sending me the link :).
By the way, that Sígur Rós interview was hilarious...
I have tears. It is amazing to make it this far and feel like life has just begun. I so admire your bravery and courage as you two find that it is worth it to take on the challenges of life. (Or light- HA!)
You all are a beautiful family. Congratulations. You deserve to celebrate.
