Right where I want to be.

I heard I quote yesterday, "Happiness is where you are right now."
I am here and it is just where I want to be. I remember I couldn't wait to have children and I remember wondering what my kids were going to look like and who was my future husband going to be? I remember praying for my "future husband" in church asking that he may be safe and kept from any harm or evil and that we meet on his time and also asking God as a "bonus" if he could be good looking. Ha! I have to say God did good on that one.
Tomorrow marks Bobby and I 5 year anniversary. And here I am with a house and 3 kids and never has my heart been more full of love. Never have I laughed so hard or had the sweetest hands to hold. The world is new again when you have kids. It is refreshing. I remember Bobby on our very first blind date walked me back to my parents front porch and told me, that I was refreshing. I had never had such a compliment, a real compliment full of substance. I thanked him sincerely, and knew something was different about "this one."
And now he has made my life "refreshing" with a beautiful home and beautiful children.

5 years later our love has only grown and with ups downs and 3 kids and a dog. I learned you will never know it all, you can never predict your own future. I have learned all those silly things I cared about before I had kids were meaningless. I have learned you really do have to give in order to receive, I have also learned never to give up. I now care more about what my kids are wearing then what I am wearing. What a blessing it is to be married with children.
