Today is the 13th anniversary of the day I married my husband. Honestly I don't think anyone thought we'd last nearly this long. Sometimes we both didn't think it ourselves but we've made it this far, I'm sure we'll make it even farther.
So, in honor of this occasion, I'm going to post 13 reasons why I love my husband....
1. He's loved me literally through thick and thin.
2. Though our family differences are vast, he has rolled with the punches as much as he could as they have rolled through our lives for the last 13 years.
3. Even though he felt a sense of duty to continue serving in the Marines after 9/11, he listened to me and my wishes and went through with his plans to leave the service shortly after the tragic events of 2001.
4. He's helped me learn to be a better wife.
5. He's supported all my recent efforts to keep myself sane so I can be a good mother and wife.
6. He's a great cook!
7. He always thinks I'm worthy of smooching -- even with crazy bed head and morning breath.
8. He's doing his best to make sure I don't feel guilty about not contributing to the household income.
9. He almost always knows when he's screwed up, and almost always does what he can to remedy it.
10 . Thirteen years later I honestly think he's more attractive than he was when we got married. And of course I love him more than I did then -- that almost goes without saying, even though we were crazy pseudo teenagers getting hitched.
11. His genes mixed with mine apparently make for crazy cute kids... though I am biased....
12. He doesn't give me grief for the side effects from my new diet and workout regime.
13. He's like a fine wine -- he's getting better with age.
