Today

On this day seventeen years ago, I married the love of my life.  On that cold snowy day, Ryan and I began our lives as husband and wife.  We have had our share of good times as well as bad times but through it all one thing has remained consistent for us - our commitment to one another.  We are by no means a perfect couple, we fight and yell with one another, we disagree on various topics, we do know how to push each other's buttons, and we each make mistakes.  In the end, we always get through it by compromising, letting the little things go, and sometimes just agreeing to disagree.  I know how blessed we are to have found one another.  I thank my lucky stars each and every day for the wonderful man I have in my life.  He chose ME to walk through this life with, to share each and every ordinary moment that makes up our lives, and I him.  In doing so, we have become stronger, more understanding and forgiving of one another, more willing to listen to each other and yes of course, to LOVE each other more.   It is so reassuring and comforting to know that no matter what, the man that I married has my well being at heart, wants to make me happy, and is happy and content to spend his days with me.  So after seventeen years (and three beautiful children), I can honestly say that I want nothing more than what I already have - the gift of love sent to me in the form of my husband, the love of my life.  Happy Anniversary HH!!  XOXOXOXO!!
