Month of May
May is a great month for me. I celebrate my birthday, wedding anniversary, and Mother's Day all within 2 weeks time. This year, the anniversary outweighed the rest. We have been married 5 years. I really feel like this is one of the bigger marriage milestones. I've heard things about the divorce rate dropping sharply after five years (not that that has ever been a thought), and it is the big one that we talked about when we first got married. We said on our 5th anniversary that we would go back to our honeymoon spot, and we wondered, "wow, I wonder where we'll be in five years. we might even have kids by then." Yes, five years have gone by, and we even have kids. Going back to the honeymoon spot is another story. Instead, we got a sitter for O, and took Carly with us to Ikea. We bought ourselves some pictures to hang on our bare walls, and then we went to a local greasy spoon and had milkshakes. We did have some teary moments being thankful for our marriage, and how far we've come. I think we've both grown a lot, and are better able to love each other as the time has gone by. I just couldn't be happier, and it is nice to feel like we are where we are supposed to be. I'm pretty sure that I have the best husband ever.
