I realize this is a week late. I wanted to write a nice Happy Anniversary post, but on our actual 10 year anniversary I was in a less than celebratory mood. However, I do want to write the post.

Last Tuesday Alan and I celebrated our 10th anniversary and my parents celebrated their 30th! Happy Anniversary!! Marriage is such a complex thing, it truly feels like an accomplishment to be together, and happy!, after 10+ years and still wanting more. I have lots of deep, sappy thoughts flitting through my head but sadly I’m not eloquent enough to capture them. Sigh. So instead I will say thank you to my parents for modeling a strong marriage, through the good and the bad, and to my husband for standing by my side. Always. I am a very fortunate woman to have such love and strength all around me. Happy Anniversary and here’s to many, many more!!
