Today is my anniversary! At 2pm today, I will have been married (wait, I have to look at the date inside my wedding ring) 28 years! I am very proud of that accomplisment. Staying married takes blood sweat and tears. I told my students the other day that staying married is a choice to be true to a promise that you make. I said to them, "Do you think that I've never seen another man more handsome than my husband? Sure I have: Gerard Butler, Kevin Costner....(I better stop there, Steave might read this - haha!) I KNOW I'm not the most beautiful woman on earth. Do you think we've never had a fight? We sure have! Do you think I've never wanted to kick him to the curb and vice-versa? Whatever!! We just decided to work it out." I'm glad we did!
In the past 28 years we:
lived in 3 different states
lived in 8 different homes
raised 2 incredible children
had innumerable pets and almost as many cars
stayed together through sickness, pain, poverty, loss, death, fear, joy, laughter and it's been the best time of my life!
