May 31, 2003 will always be one of my most favorite days. The only other ones that rank right up there with that day are March 8, 2006 and September 13, 2007. Those are the three days that all of my dreams came true. But, they started on this day eight years ago when I was finally a bride. So much has happened and changed in the last eight years. Job changes, house changes, city changes, 2 babies, a death in the family, and many, many more. But through every single one of those changes there has been one constant...my love for Joey. Actually, I'm not sure I can say that it hasn't changed; it has grown deeper and stronger with each passing year. I really and truly cannot imagine sharing this life with anyone else. Joey supports me, helps me, raises me up when I feel low, stands beside me daily, brings me smiles and laughter, holds me when I cry, raises our children in a Godly, active way, and knows me in a way that no one else does- and loves me ANYWAY. I rely on him for so much and he carries the burden well; I really couldn't get through just the day-to-day without him. From the first day of our marriage until now, my favorite time of the day continues to be when he walks in the door each day....and that's not just because it means help with the kids. :-) It's because he's my best friend and I'm happiest when he is close by.
So, happy anniversary, babe. Thank you for walking this life with me. I can't wait to see what God has in store.
