We were so lucky this year, for our 6th wedding anniversary, to have spent it with the very people who made our meeting happen. Almost ten years ago, Ify, one of my closest friends, introduced Matt and me, and she in turn met her future husband at our wedding, six years ago on this very night. Now here they were in from New York City with their own little baby, the newest addition to our extended, very dear "family." We celebrated friendship, connection, and a history between us all that spans most of our lives. How special that the family we create outside of our blood, can be just as real, loving and lasting.
