We celebrated our twenty-second anniversary today. Yes, we went two different directions throughout the day, but I had some time today to reflect on the years that we've shared together.
We've lived in four different homes in three different states.
We've had two paper pregnancies and adopted three handsome sons.
We've traveled to 48 states with our boys.
We've had five out-patient surgical procedures between the two of us.
After replacing three transmissions during our first year of marriage, we now drive vehicles that don't let us sit.
We've traveled to New Mexico and Pennsylvania more times that I can count.
We've visited world class exhibits in museums learning about things that we had only seen in books.
As much as we love the exciting stuff, there are little things that we love and that help to keep our love strong.
Like the Saturday mornings when we send the boys outside and we sit at the kitchen table after breakfast and talk for an hour or more
Or the evenings when we talk until way late.
Or the text messages that zip back and forth.
Or the times when one of the boys comments on a kiss and we kiss again just for his sake.
Or the box of chocolate that shows up unexpectedly.
Big and little, exciting and mundane, expensive or economical. I'd do it all over again.
