Happy 6th Anniversary!

Wow! Can I just say that time flies when you are having fun doing all the things that life has in store for you! 6 years today, I knelt across the alter from my best friend and chose him to be my companion for eternity! It was a very nice day, sunny and pleasant. (Just like it is outside right now?!)

As a bride, I think we are always so naive of all the things that life will throw at you, but for that one day--your wedding day, life is perfect. Life is bliss! And you can't imagine anything but how awesome that day made you feel.

But, as we all know, the honeymoon ends and life just begins to transform the two of you into something much more wonderful than you had envisioned that day. That is how I view my marriage with my best friend, Mike. On that day, 6 years ago...I never would have imagined all the awesome, sacred, exciting and challenging experiences that we have gone through together. We truly have grown together as a couple, experiences each other's strengths and weaknesses.

I am so grateful to have him as my best friend, my lover, my children's father, my boyfriend, my listening ear, and especially my husband for eternity! Thank you for being the man that makes me a better woman. Thank you for being my other half, especially when my half is struggling! I love you more today, six years later than I did (or thought I did) on our wedding day!

May we continue to work together and strengthen one another throughout the trials and experiences that will come!
