She said: ‘It’s been a wonderful year since I became your wife, saying yes to you was the best decision of my life.
“We’ve laughed more and fought less since we got married, we’ve gotten weirder, and we often pretend to play dead.”
‘You play and trick me endlessly, my God, and the way we meow at each other is a little strange.
“Rubbing your abs to check they’re there five times a day and scratching and smelling your butt is never going to be okay.”
“I think it’s obvious that there’s no one I laugh with more and life is infinitely better with you, that’s for sure.”
She continued, “Truly my best friend, you strengthen me in everything and I am so proud of you and all the endless joy you bring.”
‘It’s nice, we have our own strange language and I am very happy because you are my home.
“Honestly, I feel safer with you than with anyone, you are my teammate forever and you have been in my corner since day one.

“I don’t give up halfway, but I do remember one time I got on top of Sophie and she said, ‘Oh, keep going.’
