"This week marks five years married, and ten years together. Over this time, you've put every bit of effort into being the best husband, and father one can be... while working relentlessly to always improve at the office. Every bit of the way making it look easy, and only wanting to make us proud in return.
"We’ve seen a whole lot of life together, but I honestly can’t wait for what's yet to come. Thank you for all that you do, and know that you're always making the 3 of us proud. I love you so much," she added.
