7 years and only getting better


Holy Shiatsu its been a long time since I have blogged on here!! I think that all of my blogs have started with some form of that same sentence...I have officially decided that I am WAY over winter and all that it stands for. I hate that little bastard groundhog and I have it in for him and his entire family!!!!

In ten days Tim & I will be celebrating our 7 yr anniversary, I can not believe it has been 7 years! WOW! Looking back I am in serious shock at all we have been through and how much we have grown as a couple! (and obviously a family!) So I think that this is going to be a mushy, gooshy blog for anyone who has a weak stomach look away now!

I feel so blessed that I have found someone who can bring so much to my life daily, even after all these years! I couldn't have picked a more dedicated Daddy for my children. He makes me insanely proud! He works harder then anyone I know, often times not getting home in time to tuck his kids into bed, to provide the very best life for his family. He has made so many sacrifices for us and without hesitation. The first thing I feel every morning are his arms around me hugging me tight and telling me he loves me, that I am beautiful, that he will miss me. He makes me laugh and he makes me happy. I love our many days/nights of being silly and just laughing until we cry. What did I do to deserve such a wonderful man in my life? We have been through so many struggles and obstacles through the years, many times these have challenged our faith, commitment and dedication to each other, to our marriage and every time, through every test we have only come out stronger on the other side. We have learned the importance of communication, trust, respect, and taking responsibility for our own actions if we are in the wrong. We have learned that its ok to say 'you were/are right' and 'I am sorry'.

As I sit here and watch our children playing it makes me feel such an overwhelming sense of pride and satisfaction that we have given them both the very best that we have to offer them. They have a beautiful, warm, safe, loving home and two parents who they can ALWAYS count on no matter the circumstances. I am just as in love today, if not more, then I was 7 years ago when I arrived (an hour and a half late) to walk down the isle and take the last name of my very best friend in this world!

Thank you baby for all that you are and all that you do. I snood you <3
