With this ring, I thee wed
For my husband...on our anniversary January 20
7 years ago today I took the plunge and married a Navy man. Whew, no one prepared me for the whirlwind that was to come.
Remember that you asked me to marry you TWICE on the first day we met? Remember tagging along with Christina and I for ice cream and I made you sit in the back seat? I know you remember what I was wearing because you haven't let me throw away those darn pants yet! Looking back at our pictures we were SO young...okay, YOU were so young...me, not so much!
Days after we were married we loaded up what was "ours" and moved across the country, literally! From San Diego to Pensacola we drove in newlywed bliss. Wasn't too long after that we found out we would be blessed with a son in the fall. Deegan came along and brightened our lives, but just as the fun began you were taken to Iraq. I am so proud of you and what you do on a daily basis, I really don't think you know HOW proud I am. Maybe I don't tell you enough...so here it is in front of ...well, 6 people that follow my blog, LOL I am PROUD of YOU!
You went above and beyond what a husband is "supposed" to do in caring for me when I was diagnosed with Crohn's disease. I really thought I wouldn't live this life with you...thank goodness God came to his senses and realized you can't live without me :)
Hurricane Ivan came and went leaving behind a shell that was our home. Our marriage was tested during this time as we moved into a Red Cross shelter, prepared for you to go to Iraq AGAIN and found out that we would be blessed with another baby.
We've since been back to San Diego and now we are an ocean away from our families. Our blood relatives that is, because we have a wonderful military family here in O'ahu and I wouldn't trade this ride for the world!
Thank you for being my husband, a wonderful father, a random thinker, a forceful kisser and a hero. But most of all thank you for being you because I'm not sure I'd find anyone else to put up with me!
