Six years ago, I married my amazing husband!!!! I love that despite how different our life looks now compared to six years ago that we are still a team. We are still in love. We still enjoy spending time together. We still want the same things in life.
In college, I was a psychology major and took a class on marriage. After taking it, I vowed to not have kids the first five years of marriage because I didn't want to add any stress to my marriage in those beginning years. HA! Well, God had a much different plan and here we are with 3 beautiful children on our sixth anniversary... three kids in a matter of four years probably wouldn't have been the prescribed course of my psychology course either, but I'm sure glad that it has turned out this way.
Being parents of young children does change things and though we have managed to take a trip to celebrate our anniversary every year, this year we decided that leaving them wasn't the best option for us. Though we may take an overnight trip sometime soon, I can safely say that just having a child-free dinner for our anniversary was enough! Celebrating our love and spending time together has evolved as we have become parents and just stealing those little minutes here and there are just as special as days alone.
I am so thankful in the midst of a world where marriages come and go that I am in one that is becoming stronger each and every year.
