Writer's Block

Sorry to "all" my readers for the lack of posts lately. I started a post about a terrible hair-cut experience, but the more I typed, the more I realized this is a very long story and most likely boring to any person reading it... so I never finished it, nor posted it.

I have had no motivation to write anything so I am MAKING myself write. Jim and I finally watched the movie, Fireproof. It was a hard movie for me to watch at the beginning due to the similarities with past experiences I have had, but once I got past that part it was a really good movie. If you are married, and haven't watched it (regardless of whether you are having marital problems or not) you should check it out. It's very good. When I told my mom and dad that we were going to watch it, my dad gave me a book (called The Love Dare) to go along with the movie. Jim and I decided, even though we have no marital problems, that we were going to commit to doing the love dare. It's 40 days of dares to help you be a better husband or wife. So far we have made it to day 12. In one sense, it's encouraging to find out that we don't have a lot of the problems that many couples face in this life, but it's also an eye opener (at least for me) to see how selfish I tend to be, and how giving and caring Jim is. I am really enjoying it though- if you want to read through the book (after you have seen the movie) I have a pdf version of it that I can share. Just let me know.

Hopefully this writer's block will clear up soon, and I can get back into posting more.

Happy Anniversary!

Four years, when compared to couples that have been married 10, 20, 50 years, 4 years seems just so short. But when I think of all that we have been through in 4 years, it seems like a lifetime.

Does it seem like only 4 years since we went on our second honeymoon? Since you layed on the beach bored out of your mind, because you just can't sit still for a minute? I can hardly believe that just two short years ago, we moved from "your" little house in Tampa, to "Our First Home" together. Just one short year ago, we made the decision to start our own company... and one month later, we were in business! WoW! It seems like decades have gone by since we decided to try to start our family, and two short months ago, we found out that the Lord had finally answered our prayers.

But, in fact it has only been 4 short years. In 4 years, a person could get a bachelor's degree in college, graduate from highshool, go from a newborn infant to a walking chatterbox, serve one term as President of the United States, Earn $21 Million to play for the NY Giants (for four years)...

I am so thankful to the Lord, for giving me 4 wonderful years with you. I pray that he will give us a whole lifetime more together.

I love you! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!
