coincidence?

I've been working on unpacking and getting things put into their own places. I was going through a box of old things and I stumbled upon my journal from four years ago. I couldn't help but take a look inside- once I started reading I couldn't stop. I opened up the journal to May 7th, 2005- which is exactly four years before my recent wedding date :)
I wrote, "I went to my dad's cousin's wedding today. She looked so pretty and was married in the Salt Lake temple. That makes me all excited to get married in the temple. I want to so bad- I can't wait! Well, I guess I can for a while more, but when the day comes, I hope that I'm prepared and ready to marry in the House of the Lord."
I just found that to be quite the coincidence that I wrote that on the day that would four years down the road be my anniversary of my very own temple marriage :)
I'm so glad that I was able to be married to my husband in the Manti temple. It is the best thing that I could've done. The temple is amazing and brings so many great blessings. I'm thankful for a great husband that was willing to work hard to get to our goal of a temple marriage.
