9 Years and Still Going Strong

Nathan had quite the cough today so I stayed home to hang out with my boys on today my 9 year anniversary. Being at home hanging out with my boys has made me awfully grateful for my life. As I'm sitting here I watching Lucas whisper the right answers to Nathan's ear for Dora the explorer. What a nice brother he is. What good kids I have.

Well this wasn't suppose to be a post about the kids. Because while I believe my kids have made my marriage better, I strongly believe that you need to have balance in life, so although kids take up lots of time, it's still important to have marriage time. I think it's one of those things that keeps a marriage good. Is dedicated time to reconnect.

Now I'm off on another tangent. So yeah, Happy Anniversary Darryl. It has been great to be married to you for the last 9 years. I look forward to the next 25 years too. You are a great partner in life. I love that over the years I see us move through good times and bad times and still come out stronger on the other side.

I love you and looking forward to our anniversary dinner on the weekend.

Till Tomorrow

When I'm out and about running errands I like to people watch as I carry out whatever stops I have to make. Sometimes you see a couple that you can just tell has something special between them. It's an ease of their body language, the banter between them or the little faces they make at one another when the other isn't looking. Those are the couples that you see and you think to yourself...that's a special one...that one is going to stand the test of time.
You and Darryl are one of those couples.

Happy Anniversary, today. Congrats on 9 good years (+ more...the dating years count, too!) and may you have many decades more of them to come!

Love,
Lori

Happy Anniverary!! You should be very proud 9 years is a long time. I'm reading a book called baby wise, and it talks about how important a marriage is in regards to kids, you hit it right on the nail, Balance is important. Enjoy your dinner!
