5 sweet years and counting

I hope this post isn't too personal for any of you reading. Normally, I am not one to publicly announce my forever love to my husband. I usually keep that between us. I am not a romantic, I tend to be more of a realist. But, I am just bubbling over with gratitude for him, and so thankful to God that He placed Jeremy in my life; to walk beside me, until we leave this earth. And he really is so good to me, he deserves to be bragged on every now and then.

Happy 5 year anniversary to my very best friend and precious husband! I had no idea 5 years would fly by so quickly. Sometimes, I wonder why in the world God blessed me with someone like you. You are patient, caring, loving and always put your family first. I am so thankful for you and treasure every moment we spend together, even the lazy nights, spent laying around at home in our pj's. When we were 14 and in our very first year of high school, I had no idea what a jewel I had found. But, now I know and I couldn't be happier. Looking back on high school, college, our days in Birmingham and at UAB, buying our first home and having our first baby, I can see how much God has blessed me and I am so thankful that he knew I needed you. We have basically grown up together and I am looking forward to growing old together (not any time soon though, I am enjoying right where we're at ;). Thank you for encouraging me, loving me when I am a bit unlovable and leading our family in such a Godly way. This means everything to me. I am having the time of my life and looking forward to many, many, many more fabulous years with you!! I love you. more than my words can say.

(Sorry about the random wedding pictures. These were basically the only two I could find on my computer, and I didn't get  a chance to upload our professional ones.)
