Anniversary Edition Blog

Today is our 8th anniversary!!!! At times that day seems like only last week and on other days it feels like a lifetime ago.

Some days I feel exactly like the 23 year old girl who got married to the love of her life that day and other days I feel like an old, plain, frumpy 31 year old bore who has no clue what she is doing half the time! Just depends on the day. :-)

I have to admit before I got married I never really realized what hard work it truly is. It is somewhat similar to a precious plant. If you make it a priority and take the time, energy and effort to nurture it and help it grow it will and it will bloom beautifully for you and if you get lazy it will begin to droop and lose some leaves as a warning. I have to admit we have lost some leaves here and there over 8 years but our precious plant is still pretty awesome and with our love and a dump truck load of patience those leaves have always been replaced with new healthy ones.

Life has so many twists, turns, rocks, bumps, splinters, and even a few steam rollers BUT isn't it wonderful that it is also full of bright glorious light and love?
