Big Daddy and I have been married six years this Saturday. I felt a lil nostalgic the other day and started looking at some of the photos of our wedding day.
First, I noticed a couple of pictures taken before the ceremony that I didn't know they were being taken. I wasn't smiling but I wasn't frowning. I took a moment to remember what was I thinking. I was thinking he had only been out of the Marines for a year. I was thinking we have changed a lot. We had already been through a lot because we'd been a couple for so long. I was thinking I hope he is happy with me. I was thinking God guide me to be the wife I'm suppose to be. On that day your mind goes an extra two hundred miles a minute. So much changes after one day.
Then I noticed in the ceremony pictures, BIG SMILES! I was so happy, that yes I cried. What was I thinking. I'm doing this I'm really doing this. God did have someone out there willing to say he'll put up with me til death due us part.
Even after the ceremony we are both still in BIG SMILES. I was thinking the wedding went well, no hiccups. I was thinking we are gonna get out of here and spend almost a week in a lodge, in the middle of beautiful no where.
Six years. I guess it should seem like a long time ;) but it doesn't. If I had stolen a car I'd be out by now. If I'd gone back to college for another degree, I'd be done by now. If I'd enlisted I'd be out by now. This though, this is for a lifetime. I hope that's a LONG LONG LONG time. We've married, moved once, had two kids, two big career life changes, and looking forward to everything that is to come.
Such a sweet post!
