10 Whoppin' Years!

It's my annivarsary, today! :) Trevor and I have been married for 10 years now. Wow. Ten years. That's a long time. I was just a young 20 year old girl marrying the boy that I was sure I loved and that I KNEW God had created just for me to marry. Okay, so that's not the only thing God created him for, but it's one of my favorites! To think about all that has taken place, all the changes in my life, and in me personally in the last ten years just blows me away. It's almost like I'm a completely different person. Of course everything about me hasn't changed - like my personality or characteristics. If you ask Trevor, he will tell you that I have the same annoying habits or tendancies as I did ten years ago. So, no everything about me hasn't changed. But, I have gone from a young naive 20 year old, to what I think is an older and wiser, still somewhat naive 30 year old. I have lived so much in those years that I can hardly remember how things where before... before a husband and before 3 kids. And although I am more tired than I used to be and a little bit heavier than that in shape 20 year old, I wouldn't trade what I have now for anything. It's sad that in today's world, 10 years of marriage almost seems impossible to reach, when it should be just the beginning. Today marks our FIRST 10 years of marraige and I am looking forward to whatever else comes our way. I'm not saying that it's always easy - marriage is definitely not for wimps - but when I think back to when we first met, and how everything fell into place, and the moment I KNEW (yes knew) God told me he was the one, I know everything will be okay. After all, God created him just for me remember :) I wonder what my life will be like 10 years from now and I'm thinking back to this 30 year old woman. Exciting :)

Happy Anniversary, Babe. I love you so much. You amaze me :) - your brown eyed girl
