10 Years Ago

Ten years ago, I had no idea what my life would hold. I was young, in love and living in the moment. There were no worries, lots of sleeping in and Sunday breakfasts out reading the paper from front to back. There was spontaneity, rash decisions, and plenty of money.

Looking back over the past ten years there has been tears, heartache, pain, worry, financial concerns, sleepless nights, job changes, and children (need I say more.)

BUT, there has also been laughter...so much laughter, happiness, lots of vacations, joy, pride, cuddle time on the couch, family movie nights, dog piles, dancing in the kitchen, and more laughter.

I could have never planned out any of the past ten years. Most of it happened by circumstance rather than choice. But, as the circumstances have happened, what we have chose it to find the positive and keep going. We are a stronger couple and a better couple than we were ten years ago. And, although I would like to plan the next ten years, I think I am okay with just sitting back and seeing where we go.
