Matt and I have truly been blessed this year. I wouldn’t trade in the\u00a0fun adventures, travels, and cuddles with our Callie Lioness and Tommy Tiger for the world.<\/p>\n

Here’s why I made the best decision of my life marrying Matt: Matt is the most genuine and generous guy I’ve ever met. He is so loyal to his friends, and he has this gift of bringing people together in a community… in a quiet, unobtrusive, sincere, and caring way. Anyone who becomes Matt’s friend is a friend for life. Matt has an amazing memory – which supplements my non-existent memory! And he has an incredible calming effect on people in distress, animals, plants… you name it. He’s curious, he’s always learning. And because I get to be around him, I’m a better person.\u00a0I get to witness Matt’s gifts every day, and I cherish\u00a0it so much. Through the years of dating and exploring, I had conversations with my Aunt Vicki and was reminded that “you probably won’t find someone as positive as you, Kat!” And I’ve come to realize that what’s a more powerful partner for me is someone who is ok with me being me. And that’s Matt. And wow am I ever lucky! I love you, Matt with all my heart =) xoxo<\/p>\n
