CELEBRATING 5 YEARS!!

Adam and I have been married 5 years today and I couldn't be more grateful for this man in my life! Recent tragedies such as this and this make me take note of all the little things my hubba-hubba hubs does for me and make me grateful he's here with me and MINE! He's the most patient, easy-going person I've ever known. From the get-go, he's put me first and supported everything I've wanted to do. I'm not saying there hasn't been some give and take over the years and some habits broken down (mine), but after 5 years, I can say we're both better individuals and a happier couple than I could've wished for. Here are some of my favorite things about my eternal companion:

*He could never say a bad thing about anyone. Seriously! You know right away that it's not cool to talk about other people in front of him. He does not judge others.
*He is good at all sports, which provides lots of entertainment value for Sophie and I. We love cheering him on and he makes us proud to be his cheerleaders!
*The second part to that is that he plays sports with Sophie. I love knowing that he will be that Dad who has fun teaching and coaching his kids in sports and he's skilled enough to teach just about any sport.
*He's managed to turn Sophie into a crazy "body slammer/defensive tackle." There is nothing I enjoy more than watching those two wrestle and occasionally participating myself, like this morning. Above our bed, I have vinyl lettering on the wall that says "Together is the best place to be." Nothing beats family snuggle/wrestling time.
*He is a great provider. Together, we have managed to easily come to a consensus as to what we do with our money and we therefore have no financial stress in our lives.
*The biggest surprise to me is what a handyman he is. He doesn't hesitate to try new things around the house and likes to fill his time with productive hobbies (like building useful pieces of furniture).
*His big blue eyes and charming smile.
Happy Anniversary Adam!!!

P.S. Adam just read this and says it reads like a eulogy, esp. with the pic on the bottom. hahahaha.... Babe, I'm celebrating LIFE with you ;)
