(Denae took the picture so it is a little crooked, but oh well.)Can you believe it has been 7 years?
My first reaction to 7 years is one of surprise but then, almost immediately I start to go through our list of accomplishments. It is then that I am surprised that it has ONLY been 7 years. I guess it all makes sense when you consider the beginning of our story. We met (which is a big story all by itself) less than 4 weeks later we were engaged and 2.5 months later we were married. We have never really done things like anybody else I know. Let me show you a few examples and then you will better understand.
* We have moved into 8 different houses, apartments, townhomes, etc.
(and that does not include a month in a hotel and 4 other temporary locations)
(unfortunately we are currently paying for 2 of those homes)
* Together we have had a total of 14 different jobs, not including 6 different positions with Grainger during the last 6.5 years.
* We have had 3 beautiful little girls born to us in 3 different states.
(we have lived in a total of 4 states)
* We have visited 37 states and Mexico and Canada.
* We have owned 6 different vehicles.
* We have been treated for a dislocated arm, a broken arm, chronic morning sickness, back problems, foreign stomach problems, miscarriage, and stitches 3 times.
*** and so much more!
Aside from the little details listed above we have had a very choice 7 years together. I know I will get cheesy here and I am not trying to say that our lives are perfect but I would not trade one moment I have had with my eternal companion. We have been very guided in our life together and I love him with all my heart. He honestly makes me a better version of myself and I am so grateful to have been blessed with such an honest, hard working, protective, and caring husband and father. We have completed 7 years and have an eternity to look forward to.
To my sweet companion I say, "I love you with all my heart and soul and I can't wait to see what is waiting for us around the next corner! I will always be here for you and I know together we can conquer it all. Happy Anniversary My Sexy Husband!
