Anniversary!






Just this last week Scott and I celebrated our 8th and 9th anniversaries. We've been married for 8 but been together for 9. It is weird to think that we have been together for that long. Sometimes it feels like we've been married forever, and other times like we are just starting out. We had a nice couple of evenings. On the 8th I gave him a framed photo of us with a poem I wrote along side it. And that night we went to the Lodge for dinner, while Mom watched our kids. And on Wednesday Scott's sister, Barb, watched the kids for us so we could go see a movie. We watched Hancock, it was interesting. But it was nice to be able to have some time to ourselves. When I wrote the poem I wanted the lines to portray my thoughts and feelings about each new addition, and how I was feeling in that moment.

The poem says:

Two lives intertwine
a family, a thought

Two worlds become one
a family, a start

A child, a blessing
a family small

A surprise and a joy
a family enlarged

A third that belongs
a family that grows.
