5 Years and So Much to Be Thankful For....



This past Friday, Dave and I celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary. It was a day that wasn't going as we had planned... or as we would have thought it would or should... We had thought we would take a trip or something of that nature but it didn't work out... Sometimes we have to get past the ideas of what or how we "think" something should be. Anyway, when evening came we had come to the conclusion that we were going to spend our evening at home (mom was babysitting). I had worked and Dave was going to football practice and we still had not really carved any plans in stone other than spending an evening together... So many times we look for elaborate plans to make our days special. Well guess what, the days when all we have is each other ARE indeed some of the most wonderful! I have to say I felt a little ashamed of myself for having my "ideas" of how the day should go. As it turns out, we had a wonderful evening and I wouldn't have traded it for a trip to anywhere! At the end of the day, I was reminded of how blessed I am... I thank God for Dave - for a Christian mate... One that at the end of an evening at home, I can be even more in love with than I was when I woke up in the morning... Happy Anniversary to my wonderful husband!
