Well, Ben and I have been married for 5 years today. That's right we made it to our 5th anniversary. Who would have ever thought it possible...beside the good Lord who brought us together. I have learned so much about life in these past 5 years, things I would have never dreamed of. I have learned about patience, grace, and sacrifice. I have learned that life doesn't always go the way you plan, especially in a marriage. I have learned that marriage isn't about reciprocity or giving a little to get a little. Its about being obedient to G-d all the time. I have learned that is it possible to love someone more each and everyday. I have learned that you should never go to bed mad or upset. I have learned that men can't read your mind and you should never expect them to. I have learned that G-d uses marriage as a way to teach us His love and patience. I have learned that I am often very hard to love. I have learned that not being selfish is a very hard thing to do. I have learned that kind words and a smile can go a long way. I have learned that marriage takes a lot of work...but that it is so worth it.
I know I often give Ben a hard time and do not edify him as I should...but he truly is a remarkable husband and I am blessed to have him. So happy anniversary babe!
