Happy four years to us, to me and my South African-with-the-Welsh-name-and-a-British-passport.
Since last year, you've studied for the first time and done rather brilliantly. I've stuck with the same one job for once and am still learning every day. We left Cornwall after a hard-good-hard two and a bit years and enter our fifth year not quite having a home (but nearly, hopefully!). But we also have lots of homes, like in that special South East corner, and lots of beds to sleep in, and hearts cheering us on. We've done our first proper little bit of travelling together and now we're hungry for more.
We've spent a whole lot of nights in together, (sometimes mainly because there was no one else to hang out with on a Friday night in Penzance) and a few nights out. This year is going to be pretty different. Maybe we'll even have to do that 'date night' thing in order to see each other between commutes and a full-time degree and the Big Smoke... However it looks, we'll figure it out, probably with a few tears and frustrated beers but we'll get there because we have done before.
You're my best friend more than ever, even though my resting-bitch-face/stressed-by-work-brain doesn't often show it. I'd still pick you out in a crowd as the one I fancy. Still grateful for your acceptance of me just as I am in all my messy-ness. Still want to know you better and hold your hand and face the journey together, like we promised we would.
