3 years later

On wed dave and i celebrated three years of marriage. I have to tell you, of all anniversary's this is the first one I woke up and felt excited. I think that it is because I needed to feel excited. I spent our first anniversary sick(morning sickness that is), and our second one we were just both excited and nervous to leave addy for the first time for more than an hour so we could go to dinner and a movie, and by the end of it my boobs felt like they were about to burst.
So there was something fresh and hopeful about this one. A new start i guess? Maybe the feeling that in someway this year feels like it can only get better than last? whatever the reason, it felt good. And I was also so grateful for the day off of work to spend it with my girl. The absolute best things to come out of our first three years together..she has been worth it all.

So after a great day with her and visiting the newest member in our village out here Dave and I got to go out for an amazing Thai dinner and had such a great time just talking..because after three years it feels so natural, so right yet still new and exciting at times.

Marriage is hard..that is for sure, but when you pick the right person, when you listen to Gods directing, when you trust him every step of the way, it can be oh so good.

The funny thing, the irony about it all, is what I have learned is that being married isn't the hard part, its dealing with everyone else;)*grin*

Anyways, Dave, I would choose you all over again, in a heartbeat. But I would go back and tell myself three years ago this:
to let all expectations and set steps go, and just love, just go with the flow, have goals and dreams, but don't let them consume you girl, take each day one day at a time, and focus on the good of that day..and just love...love him...love yourself and keep serving the one that brought you together...because he is the one who is going to bless the next three..thirty...and then some even more than you can imagine. So let go to the father, the one who has the master plan, and just love girl, just love..
