six

Six years ago today, I was running around getting ready for our wedding. I woke up so excited and stayed that way the whole day. The girls headed over to my friend Erin's house where we did our hair and makeup and headed over to the church. We ate lunch at the church and then got dressed. We took pictures before the wedding and I had so much fun. We split up after pictures and waited for the ceremony to start. I never once got nervous. I was nothing but excited. I remember my dad not letting us go down the aisle until a certain point in the Wedding March, his reasoning being that we didn't want to get down to the end of the aisle and have to stand there for a while. I couldn't wait though, I practically dragged my dad to get going. :)

Today, I am running around after a 3 1/2 year old, getting him potty trained. I'm also doing my darndest to add to our family, not being successful and trying to come to terms with the fact that I might be the mother of an only child. I'm almost to the point where I'm OK with that. (How silly of me to think that we'd get pregnant as soon as we wanted!) Life is so much different now than it was six years ago. And despite that, I would not trade the past six years for anything. They've been the best six years of my life! I have the most amazing husband. He's been there for me every step of the way. This past year has been a doozy, and he's never once quit being strong for me when I couldn't be strong for myself.

You, Josh, are my best friend and I can't thank you enough for being there for me every single day. Thanks for asking me to marry you. :)
