A year ago today our lives changed. Sometimes it’s been for the better, sometimes it’s been for worse. I knew going into marriage it would be a lot like being a parent in that it was the greatest thing I’d ever do and yet also the hardest and most difficult. All the books I’ve read trying to prepare for this has helped, and yet it’s been the actual relationship itself that has shaped me, changed me. My marriage isn’t like the movies, it’s better. Because it’s real. I have a husband who’s willing to stand by me and let me make mistakes, and he’s willing to admit he makes them too. A year ago today I was standing across Tommy making cross-eyes, trying to make him laugh during his vows. I’m glad I have someone else to walk with during the best and worst of my life. Today I’m glad I got in this with him.
Happy Anniversary. I love you
