sweet sixteen

Friends.  When you’re a kid, waiting for that 16th birthday to roll around, those years can take forever.  Seriously, I remember.  Waiting to grow up is torture sometimes.

But, when you become a grown up, sixteen years can fly by like you’re in some kind of time-warp machine, especially when times are good.  and they are!

People used to tell me that’s how it would be, but I never believed them.  (I guess the fact that I’m even writing these words in a blog post means I have to admit that I also am an adult now. )

Well, let me tell you – the past 16 years have passed by on hyper drive.  I feel like my wedding to Michael Day was just yesterday.  Our honeymoon to Naples, Florida should be happening.   But, I blinked and here we are, with three children, careers, and the crazy life that goes with all of that; our hopes and dreams have melted together into a life that we love.

I never could have imagined I would love Michael so much more now than the day we got married.  I had no idea just how sweet our life together would be.

My heart is so grateful for this man I married.  Michael Day- I love you with my whole heart and can’t wait to see what the coming years will bring!  Happy sweet sixteen, baby!
