Our Anniversary!

Oh Peter you should have ran for the hills!!! The ones in your homeland... Poland!!! LOL

Happy Anniversary to us!! 14 years today.

And still counting. Now that's something.

What were we thinking that day?
Were we thinking we'd have a houseful of crazy kids ,no money, and trials along the way that would turn your hair gray? Were we thinking there would be days that we were on our knees praying for the health of one of our children... there have been many nights like that with our sweets. Were you thinking that time would go by so fast? Were you thinking we would have such "grown up" decisions to make?

No I wasn't either.

I was thinking about our first dance together, and that I could call you my husband. I was thinking about the tiny apartment we would call our home. I was thinking about our honeymoon. I was thinking about how I never wanted to take my gown off, and how this was the day that I had waited for my whole life.



We were both surprised by real life... weren't we. It was a lot harder than we thought. but we are making it through! Together!!

And although our children do not in any way resemble the darlings from The Sound Of Music,as I thought they would. And our hills are not alive with the sound of music, they are alive with us, our family. They are alive with yelling and crying and arguing and praying and laughter, and LIFE!

Thank you Peter for taking the good and the bad for all these years.

Never forget that I love you! Happy Anniversary to the only man in the world that could love me and put up with me til death do we part!


* and yes it really was April when we were married. The pictures look more like January. Just my luck that in 1996 there was a freak snowstorm on April fools day! Killed everything pretty that was starting to bloom.
