I'm two days early

**I forgot to mention, below**
Ben and I will be married for ten years this Friday. T-E-N YEARS! It sounds way longer than it's actually felt.

I was thinking today about Ben and my relationship. I honestly don't think that any other man could have stayed married to me. (I have too many quirks to list....and they just hang around and often times....get worse!) He basically taught me how to communicate and juggle bills. =) All within the first year of marriage. He's my best friend. My Love. A modern day Knight-in-shinning armor. He's the most handsome man I've ever laid eyes on. It has been a privilege to share his name and life.

Ben, you are amazing. You are my hero.


I am blessed, I am blessed
From when I rise up in the morning
'Till I lay my head to rest
I feel you near me, you sooth me when I'm weary
Oh Lord, for all the worst and all the best
I am blessed





**We are going away! This weather is supposed to be......HOT! No kids, nice weather, husband all to myself......paradise.** If you're interested, this is last years anniversary post...

Babe, you are so amazing! Thank you for puting up with me for all these years. The best part is... this is only the beginning. I love you more today than I ever have. How that's possible, I have no idea. Sometimes I feel like my heart will explode. But, I can't wait to see what each new year brings and... I really can't wait for this weekend!! :-)

Hey you guys! I'm so blessed to be your mom! Dad and I are very proud of you guys and how you are always working on your relationship! It was an awesome wedding, one of my very favorites! The years have flown by; I can barely remember our tenth! In fact, I'm not sure I do! When you get up as far as us, you sort of quit counting! Have a very radical time away! Love you much, Mom : )
