Isn't that title an attention grabber!...that song title was going through my mind lately!
I found my old love letters to Kris last night packed away in our computer table that we were dismantling. In them, I spoke of my undying love ...whatever I thought 'love' was 8 years ago. I said "I do" years ago...but looking back, did I really know what those words and actions really meant? Don't get me wrong, we are very compatible and have many of the same values and dreams. I just am so thankful for maturity and grace throughout these past years.
Looking back 8 years ago, would I have been ready for the days I have had lately? A busy household, the balancing act with adoption paperwork, committees, a sick lil one, a hubby working insane hours, personality misunderstandings...
I'm so happy I have been eased into this life, one day at a time. Would I like to change somethings? Sure. But I am so thankful to be where I am and loving whom I'm with!

I too am so thankful for grace throughout our 12 years of marriage...and growth too!!!!
I'm glad you said it. I've been thinking the very same thing, but I was afraid that I was the only one.
My life doesn't always go the way I thought it should, but I must say that it's been worth it.
And when I said "I DO" I never thought that I would have to bend over backwords some day's just to keep the sanity.
I would never change my life tho!
What a Blessing, 9 years and going strong!
i had no idea what 'i do' really entailed when i spoke those words 7 years ago. the love we shared back then was a whole lot simpler!
I too have looked back over the years and wondered if I had ever really known what love was....We were soooo romantic....now I don't even know the meaning of the word!!! haha :)
