Shawn and i will be together 14 years on january 29th. it is pure craziness. sometimes i still feel like we are 16 and on our first date, then i remember i'm almost 30 and we are about to have our 4th babe.
i debated on doing a blog all about our high school love story, but i remembered i did that last year, you can read it by clicking here.
we are still having fun and he is still the one.
we REALLY are still having fun. we actually spend time together.
he is still the one and that is because we actually talk to each other.
i know i've said before we had a rocky 3 months where he'd come home from work, i'd pass the kids off on him so i could maybe get 5 minutes to myself, then i'd come back downstairs irritated that he didn't take out the trash..... i mean can men not really see the trash overflowing? {wink}...... one night we sat down and had the "i feel like we are roommates " talk. probably a convo LOTS of people have....A LOT of times. what was different about this talk? we actually made changes. we didn't just talk about it, we acted on it. even when we didn't feel like it.
i was talking to a friend about what marriage is all about and it really is all about giving...100% of the time. even when you had a bad day at work, even when you have sleepless nights and are up with your baby, even when you think that he should of done this.....or she should of done that....even when you are "pms'ing" and so moody "because it's that time of the month"....{yes, i just went there}. if i feel myself getting upset about something i literally have to think to myself "don't be a biatch" {sorry for saying that word mom, haha}
give 100% all of the time, give all of your kindness, give all of your patience, give all of your love, give all of yourself.... Even when we feel like the other person has stopped giving their 100%. yes, that is hard at times but no one ever said that marriage isn't work. if you didn't show up for work some days, there would be some serious problems. same goes for your marriage. We work hard on this everyday.
ok, on a happy note, happy "dating" anniversary to my sweet husband. thank you for being so selfless and giving of your self 100% of the time, you make life fun and i am still over the moon in love with you. thank you for making me a priority in your life.
i'm still having fun, and you are still the one....even after all these years....and four kids later....and even after you take out the trash but never put a liner in... haha
xoxox
this was our 1 year "dating" anniversary
p.s shawn- sorry if i'm cranky the next few weeks from getting no sleep from YOUR baby. haha
here is a little video i made: i'm not the most computer savvy and couldn't figure out how to get the song "we are still having fun, and you are still the one" :)
