Today is our 8th anniversary. It's amazing to me to think back on how much we've grown and changed over these years. Of course, right now I'm probably overly sentimental. But I really do know I love my dear husband now more than ever. I'm so happy with the way our life has turned out, despite some rough patches. No, it's hasn't been easy or gone as planned, but I know the Lord has us at the place we are now for a reason. I'm such a blessed wife, and now a blessed mother, to have my sweet Manny and Elijah. Manny has been a tremendous help with him this past week. (He's one week old today, by the way.) It's so beautiful to see how much he loves his little son. I always knew he'd be a great father, but I didn't anticipate how precious it would be to watch them interact together and hear Manny talk about how much he loves him. I am so thankful for them both. God has given me two of the greatest treasures in the world. Because things are turned so upside-down for us right now we didn't have a chance to go out and do anything today, but I'm not disappointed in the least. Who needs gifts? I'd say having a baby isn't a bad way to celebrate.
