May 22 officially marked 10 years since James and I tied the knot! Insert cliche of your choice here____________. I'll pick…."Seems like only yesterday…" It really does.
On a more serious and genuine note, I can say that after a decade together, we now appreciate the words my father told James when he asked for permission to marry me…My dad simply replied with "Marriage is hard work" followed by a lengthier speech about commitment, etc. We laughed about it then not really knowing what we were getting into. Now we can look back and fully appreciate that sentiment and my dad's words of wisdom. Just like with anything else that is worthwhile (take parenting for instance), it's hard work but the rewards are tenfold. I love this guy, the family we have established and the life we have built together. Would do it all again (with only slight changes) if I could.
My most favorite thing about anniversaries is the excuse to celebrate (without the children). James and I enjoyed a wonderful evening out together…one of my favorites. Happy Anniversary to us!
