I still remember my first anniversary. Even though I have now been married almost 9 years, my first anniversary was the most meaningful and memorable. I also remember struggling with what to get my husband to show him how happy I was with him and our life together. I ended up getting him a really cliche book about love and some random candles. It did not make much of an impact. I wish that Bellflower Books would have been around back then. Not only would I have had the option to create a truly amazing and priceless gift to give on my 1 year anniversary, I would love to have a copy of that book to reflect on now! So much changes in 9 years!!! It would have been wonderful to have a record of the blissful time in our life when we were young newlyweds with little responsibility:)
I was inspired to write this post because of our sponsorship of Project Marriage with blogs Life Without Pink and Mommy Friend. I love the idea behind Project Marriage and I think a Bellflower Book is a wonderful way to let your husband know he is loved and appreciated on any occasion or anniversary. I know that in my own marriage, it is when either one of us starts to feel neglected or unappreciated, that things start falling apart. Creating a Bellflower Book is a great way to show your significant other how much he means to you. Plus, it is an excellent record of your life together!
