Dear Thom, a timeline ...

August 12, 2011
A magical day that made all the difference in my life. I met you at the rehearsal dinner for my brother and your cousin's wedding in California. You mixed me my favorite drink, a White Russian, and I knew then there must be something special about you.


August 28, 2011
You came to visit me for the first time in NYC and we survived hurricane Irene together at the neighborhood pub.


September 16, 2011
I came to see you in NC for the first time. You accidentally blurted out that you loved me and I knew I loved you too. We became official BF/GF this weekend.

October 8, 2011
You carried me on your back when my high heels had become too painful to walk in.

November 24, 2011
We spent Thanksgiving in NYC with my parents, our sisters, and friends.


December 16, 2011
You helped me ring in my 25th birthday and surprised me with the best birthday present I have ever received ... a trip to Europe.


December 31, 2011
A trip to Seattle with Katie and Jonathan, we looked at the dental office that you have now bought, had great seafood and rang in the New Year three times that night.


January 6, 2012
You helped introduce NYC to two of my best friends.


February 2012
Our first Valentines day celebration.



March 1, 2012
We spent the weekend in Utah meeting each others family and friends.

March 17, 2012
St. Patty's day was celebrated in DC discovering the endless ways to use only two fingers (who needs the rest?)


April 11, 2012
This day has not happened yet, but it is your birthday. We will be in Paris and I will be so happy that I get to help you celebrate your birthday.

I hope this past year has been as great for you as it has for me, and the next will continue to get even better. Happy Birthday Thom!

Love always, Caitlin
