Our 8th Anniversary!

Today is the 8th anniversary of our Marriage! I'm at home with the boys today and Mark is on duty at the Fire Department with Jimmy! I told Mark as he left this morning to make sure to take Jimmy somewhere nice for lunch....to hold his hand and to stare into his eyes and tell him how much he LOVES him!!! :o) Not so sure he found that to be funny!

Mark has almost been with Boone Fire for 2 years now! It will be 2 years the first of August! Time goes so fast! In the time that he's been with the Deaprtment, he's had to work most all of the holidays and our birthdays...no one does this to him on purpose, it's just the way his shifts fall! So......it was his turn to work on our Anniversary this year! That's o.k., though. We got to see each other this morning, and he'll be home tomorrow morning! We're planning a quick get-away in the next week, so we'll celebrate then! Don't have any pictures of us to post other than a Wedding pic. I meant to get our picture taken together on Father's Day, but that went out the window!! I'll try to get some of just him and me done sometime soon! Since he quit working at the high school, we don't get to go to the Prom anymore and get our picture made there every year!

It has been 8 years full of fun, laughter, tears, sadness, children, and Love. Most of all there has been Love. To have found someone who loves me and whom I can love is a rare thing in these days. To be married for 8 years is becomming a long marriage anymore. I only hope that we can weather this thing called life and continue to love each other and stick together through the good AND the bad, and hopefully celebrate MANY more Anniversaries in the years to come! I Love you, Markie-Poo! Happy Anniversary!
