Ten Years

Today, my main squeeze and I are celebrating
TEN years of marriage!!!

This has been ten suuuuuh-weeeeeeeeet
years of FuN, LAuGHter and LoVE!

I truly can't believe it has been ten years.
I can easily conjure up that giddy, sweet
feeling I had the day we got married.

It was perfect.
Although our marriage has not always
been and is not always perfect,
it's close enough for me.
I am still very much in love with the man
that I married at seven in the evening on
Saturday, September 25, 1999.


For today's post, I was going to rank
my favorite things about T-dawg,
but I kept getting a tie for first place.
I love my husband's wit, his sexy-good
looks, his kindness, his priorities, his charm,
his strength, his work ethic, his manliness,
his intelligence, the way he fathers our
children, and of course...
the way he loves & protects me.
Nobody has ever loved me or made
me laugh like my husband does.
So there...it's like a 10 way Tie!!!


Then I thought I'd do
100 MORE Things I love About You!
I did these 100 things when we got married...
But to be honest, I'm pregnant and lazy
and have too much first grade homework to do!
But trust me, there are EASILY way more
than 100 new things I love about my man.

If you'd like to see lots more wedding pictures
and read a mushy love letter I wrote my Love
Dawg on our last anniversary, go here...
I was really in love at nine years, too!

There is something extra, extra special
about this anniversary and it's not just
because it's ten years.
I once read that a baby is God's way
of showing us that the world goes on.
I just have to think that our sweet
SURPRISE with Baby Boy Love is
also God's way of showing Troy and me
that our marriage goes on.
NOT THAT I DOUBTED IT WOULD...
but hey, a sweet surprise like this from
God is NOT something I take lightly!

God has blessed me in a way I don't
deserve with my marriage and my children.
I don't take that for granted.
I am so very, very thankful
that I'll fall even more head
over heals with my husband
again when we have our third child.
It's already been happening just
through the course of this pregnancy.

I love being a wife to Troy and a
mother to our children.

Troy...I love you and I can't thank you
enough for these ten years!
Thank you for making me feel
loved and beautiful every single day.
And thank you for making me laugh
every single day (well, except for those
days when we are mad at each other!).
~YAME~
You are my Everything.
I'm sealing this post with a kiss...

Happy Ten Year Anniversary!
Love...Wifey
