Nine Years and Counting


Nine years down and only an eternity to go (as my husband always says) It might bother me if he said this in anything but a joking matter. The truth is I am happier today than I was nine years ago on my wedding day. I couldn't have made a better choice picking someone to spend forever with.
These are a few of my favorite things that I love about him.
1. His makes me laugh every single day (either at him, or with him ) either way I'm good. I'm not picky : )
2. He is very patient -my dad used to lose his temper with 4 girls driving him crazy all the time, Michael is NOT that way no matter what stupid "girl" mistake I make.
3. He puts up with all my crap... no matter what crazy idea I come up with or where I want to drag him and the kids he always goes along with only minimal rolling of the eyes.
4. He's the first person I want to talk to or tell when I have BIG news.
5. He is such a GREAT dad. My kids are seriously lucky kids!
6. He works so hard so I can stay home with the kids. He would be willing to do anything to give me that option to stay home.
7. His is a really great friend. He treats me like he would any best friend. He is patient, respectful, and encouraging.
Thanks for all you do babe. I couldn't have picked someone more perfect for me if I had looked for hundreds of years. (Thankfully it didn't take that long!) I hope that I return the favor and make you as happy as you make me. Nine years and counting, only an eternity more to go.

Happy Anniversary... I missed sending you a card sorry about that. It's been crazy here.... I'm glad Mike found you and I'll never forget when we first met you and how excited I was that he had chosen so well in finding you. Love Tam
