Happy Anniversary!!!

Happy Anniversary to us!! It is hard to believe 8 years have passed since we were married- even more difficult to imagine that it took so long to find each other and that we haven't always been together.

What an amazing thing happened when God brought the 2 of us together. I had hoped we would be able to celebrate the 2 becoming 3 on the same day the 2 became 1, but I am now happy to share this day only with you, my love.

What an amazing 8 years it has been. So much learning and growing. It is hard to believe that next week will mark the 2 year anniversary of
our filling out our paperwork and deciding to take the plunge into this journey as we have known it. Can you believe we've spent 1/4 of our married lives waiting for our son?

It is so exciting to know that, though the tunnel seems to be quite curvy under the mountain, and the light not yet seen, it really is around the
next bend. How blessed we are to be able to journey this path together. Hand in hand, heart to heart, learning to listen to God's sweet voice as He leads and directs us.

I'll never forget standing in your driveway while your friends and family were taking bets on when we'd be married. We were discussing adoption even then. I am so excited to be a parent with you, nurturing, teaching, loving our son together and teaching him about our love and faith in God and how He brought all of us together.

What a great time to be able to tell the world, to shout it out loud how much I love this man that God has brought into my life and how much I love this little man already that God is bringing into our lives. The journey just keeps getting sweeter and sweeter, honey.

I love you!!!
