Oh how I have aged him!


Today is Brad's 37th birthday! I can remember my mom saying that her gray hairs were well-earned, given to her slowly by her children. I must say that I'm pretty sure that I have given Brad cause to have a few gray hairs of his own.


It is true that life comes with its fair share of pressures and responsibilities for everyone, but over the last seven years I feel like we have weathered a lot together. Growing up is hard, running a household is hard, raising kids is hard, keeping up with things like jobs and bills is hard, and marriage is a lot of work. We aren't always laughing and sometimes we just flat out tick each other off, but when push comes to shove I know he always has my back. I tease him about marrying a lemon like me on occassion and he just laughs and we go on!


Who would have guessed when I was in seventh grade at St. Joseph Grade School making eyes at the tall boy in eighth grade that I would be watching him blow out the candles today! Happy Birthday!
