Our 5th Anniversary!

5 Years already! Andrew and I will be celebrating our fifth wedding anniversary this Saturday, October 11th. I totally can't believe it has been five years and yet there are moments when I find myself smiling just by thinking of him. We've had some crazy times, lived in four different states, and have one precious son, and a baby on the way. I really can't imagine my life without him. It is absolutely wonderful to know I have found someone who knows me so well. Someone who wipes my tears, loves me regardless of my flaws, and still thinks I am beautiful, even if I have gained weight in these five years.

I remember the morning I woke up on our wedding day thinking is this really going to happen. I was a mess that day trying to make everything perfect and getting everyone to do things just the way I had dreamed about my entire life; however, when it go to about ten minutes before I walked down the aisle, nothing seemed to matter anymore. All I wanted to do was to see my husband, and start the new day of the rest of our lives together. As the doors opened, I immediately locked eyes with him and knew he would make my life better and because of him, I now know what true love really is.

Happy Anniversary my love, my constant, my sometimes you make me so frustrated, my kindred spirit I thank you for the five wonderful, crazy years and our children - you've made all of my dreams come true.
