Love & Marriage..

Today is my 12th Wedding Anniversary! As I reflect on the last 12 years (i got married later in life, 38..), I enjoy being married - it's not as easy as some say.. but what is right? When you get married or create your life, I think you have expectations on how things are going to happen and then if you're plan is derailed..it'a hard. But I'm not a negative person, so I try to just deal with what's been done and stay in the moment..being "present" for my husband & Grace..

I look at our wedding picture.. we had the most beautiful wedding ever..and I am happy we were able to afford such a lavish wedding. I look at pictures with my parents, and H's parents and are saddened that 3 out of the 4 our no longer with us.. certainly getting married later in life and starting a family later..I miss my parents, but miss the 'grandparent' love they could have for Grace.

It certainly hasn't been easy.. our marriage.. our losses.. from babies to our parents. But every year, every day.. we try to learn more about each other to communicate better.. and we love each other... and our family.

Happy Anniversary Gary!
