7 years

Today Christopher and I have been married for 7 years. WOW...7 years! Sometimes I think, "Holy crap! It feels like we have been together FOREVER!" Then sometimes I think back and it seems like only yesterday we were a couple of teenagers with no idea what was in store for us. I woke up this morning and went into my sons room. i just stood there for a moment and looked at him while he slept. He looked just like his father. I was startled by Kenna calling Mom. (yes, my baby is gone! I'm no longer mommy, I'm mom!) I went in to her room and she was hiding under the covers waiting for me to discover her. When I pulled back the comforter she shouted, "MORNING!" Sometimes she is so cute I want to cry! I know our lives have been so unpredictable and we have had to weather a few storms, but my life is exactly how i wanted it to be. I wouldn't change a single thing. I have 2 of the most unbelievable children with, I'm sure, another amazing one on the way. I have a husband, that is a wonderful father, great provider, horrible liar and a little bit of a shopaholic, but even after 7 years, i still love everything about him. Even his crazy obsession with golf! So here is to my husband.... Thank you. Thank you for thinking of me when you are at the store and bring me home random things like straws and orange tic tacs. Thank you for having lunch with me almost every day. Thank you for telling me i look beautiful when i haven't worn makeup in days and we both know i look like the walking dead! Thank you for remembering my favorite flowers. Thank you for running a mile in 20 degree weather to get help when the truck broke down and I was in labor! Thank you for loving me in the crazy way that you do. Thank you for every little thing that you have done in the past 7 years. I can't wait to see what the next 7 bring.
