all the rest of my vows i love but i cant seem to put this part in the correct wording that dont sound redundant.. ill give you the set up...when we first started hanging out and being friends 5 years ago he needed a ride back to base from the airport after visiting his family in ohio..ok so i was running late and didnt have time to stop for gas(if i did he would have been standing there waiting even longer) so i opted out of stopping for gas even though my tank was running dangerously low. ok so i got there and him picked up...no sooner where we on the highway(just out of the airports terminals and all) i ran out of gas.. he kept asking me are you kidding me? haha so i said "what i just wanted some quality time with you and get to know each other better" lol..he laughed so hard and me too. so there we were walking down a pitch black highway about midnight looking for a gas station open...so thats the story.. i wanted to incorporate me testing his patients with me and all the patients he has had to have since...and for him to take on and love my kids shows exactly how much patients he really has......any ideas how to word that in a sentence or 2?

Maybe something about "Over these last 5 years, I've been able to spend more quality time with you/ get you know you better, even without having to use the excuse of running out of gas at midnight to walk down a dark highway with you, but instead through seeing you playing with my kids, and loving me all these years, and being patient with me even when I forget to fill the gas tank." (what stuck out to me was your statement of "I wanted to spend some quality time with you". that may be something to build on)
It's a cute story, and it is hard to put it in a few sentences :) Good luck!

I like the suggestion. I might say it in a way that says something to the effect of, "...and when I test your patience, just remember our midnight stroll down the highway, just so we could spend some quality time together." It'll be an inside joke for the two of you, but very special.
