6 years


Six years ago today I married the best man I know.

Jamie and I met each other when we were about 9 years old at our church. We've grown up together. We were friends first and then high school sweethearts.
When we finally got married it was perfect day.
It was fun and funny.
I was so glad for all the work and stress and details that went into that day (because up until that day I totally wanted to elope).
All our friends were there.
All our family were there.
I wore the dress.


We said "I do".


We kissed.



We ate.
We danced.
It was a beautiful day.



The last 6 years have been really fun, but especially the last few have been hard. Having kids does not make a marriage any easier.
But it does make it fuller.
Deeper.
Sweeter.

It has shown me the depth of the man I married. The patience. Forgiveness. Steadfastness.
He is so much more than who I thought he was 6 years ago.
I pray I keep discovering and learning and loving him when we're celebrating our 26th anniversary.
