Thirteen and Counting

Thirteen years ago today Patrick and I "officially" started dating. A lot has happened in the past thirteen years. We've graduated from highschool, endured four years of a long-distance relationship, graduated from college, gotten married, moved a lot (both individually and together), bought a house, had a baby . . .

It's really hard to believe how quickly thirteen years went by. I seems like just yesterday I was seventeen, and y'all I'm far from seventeen. We've grown and changed, and I like to think we've grown and changed in good ways. We have more responsibilities, more stress, and substantially more bills than we did thirteen years ago (haha!). We also have more joy, more laughter, and less drama (thank goodness) than we had thirteen years ago. Not every moment has been easy, but every moment has been worth it.

Thanks for thirteen great years together, Honey. I love you.

I even got flowers ;)
