tomorrow i will celebrate 15 years of marriage to the man who swept me off my feet when we were young.
by the numbers: 15 anniversaries. 7 jobs(his). 5 children. 8 apartments and or duplexes. 1 house. 230 haircuts. 1 overnight getaway alone. 150 batches of sour cream sugar cookies (modest estimate). 3 theme songs. 1 dog. 8 cars(i think). 3 babies born at home. 12,000 digital photos. for now. 1 trip to disneyland. 10 years of school (his).
11 years of homeschooling. 15,000 fart jokes.

i feel so blessed to have grown up together and shared the beauty and challenges of life with him.
because of him, every dream i had for my life is in my hands.
