Can you believe it has already been a year since our wedding? Yesterday was our one year anniversary and I just want to make sure my husband knows how much I love and appreciate him.
This year has just flown by and we have been through a lot as newlyweds. We started out our first year of marriage by getting married in NY and having the best simple and sweet wedding with our family and close friends. Our wedding night was a blast when we went out in NYC with our closest friends. What a random group of people it turned out to be, however, it was such a special night! We then flew to Hawaii to have the most memorable honeymoon ever. It was the most glorious place I have been to so far and there isn't a day that I don't think about it. (Seriously...I have to get back there ASAP!!!) Married life has come naturally for us and I have to say that since I have another marriage to compare it to that this is a huge blessing (especially since I have the boys). We probably have some form of argument at least once a day to every other day, but it doesn't even matter. Alex still makes me smile even when I am so frustrated and angry (although I really really try to fight that sometimes!), which ensures me that he is my one and only. In the past year we have started a photography business, which has been slow going but seems to be promising. He has been so supportive by helping me with this, so that I can try to stay home with the kids as much as possible. Alex started a new job (right after our honeymoon) and even though it seems as though it has its up and downs it has been going fairly well. We have "birthed" a littler of puppies, which was quite the experience and even kept 2 of the litter to add to our zoo.
Don't get me wrong...this year hasn't been been completely positive. Alex lost his grandfather, but I hope that I was able to make that hard time a little more bearable for him. We lost a kitty (my cat that I have had since my freshman year in college), which of course isn't the same as losing a family member, but hard nevertheless. I've been really hesitant about blogging about this...but we have also been trying to have a baby. Pretty much since the honeymoon (probably around September of last year) and it has been obviously unsuccessful. This has probably been the most trying thing that we have endured so far, but Alex has made it the slightest bit easier to go through. One of these days I am sure I will go into a little more detail about this, but just for everyone's curiosity..there is nothing wrong with him or me..it's just the combination of us together...which sucks...but we are seeking help to overcome this. How can I have 2 beautiful kids so easily with someone that I didn't stay married to and didn't even like all that much, but can't have just one baby with my soul mate?
Anyway, I just hope that Alex is aware of how much I love him and appreciate him for everything he does for me and my kids. We love him so much and don't know where we would be without him!
