~ I Do ~

Love..... Isn't it grand.... Ok well we all know it's never an easy emotion because it's ever changing. We all remember the first time we said those powerful 3 words, 'I Love You'... I know I do but it wasn't until I met my husband that I honestly knew what it meant... Of course you love you parents and family and in my case my children but the love you receive from a partner, a lover, a significant other, is on a whole other level.... It's hard to explain but it's like it hurts to love them but the thought of loving someone else hurts even more...

It's funny how many 'flavors' love comes in... I know that all the other times I thought I was in love, which was only a time or two, I truly wasn't. I know now that even when times are hard, I still love him... I know now that when we are not seeing eye to eye, I love him... I know now that even when he does the most irritating things, I love him and can see past that... I know that without him I would be miserable even during those times I feel miserable with him (inside joke)...

Today, April 19th, we celebrated our 2nd Anniversary as Husband and Wife... Throughout the day I replay our wedding over in my mind and hold tight to that feeling I got when the church doors opened and I saw him standing at the altar. A feeling of love, one that I know I will never feel again and one that I couldn't imagine feeling with another....

Happy Anniversay My Love... Here's to many more years filled with all the ups and downs God can throw our way :)
