HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!

Today is mine and Pauls 5th wedding anniversary. Yeah weve made it 5 years. I cant believe that It has been that long. It seems like just yesterday we were waiting for deer season to be over so we could get married. Now we have been happily married for 5 long years....lol. Well mostly happy.



But today I want to say what a great man I married. He has been my rock over the last few years and I wouldnt know what to do without him. He works hard everyday at a job that he pretty much would love to quit tommorow so that his family can eat and we can have our house and our cars and our clothes. He comes home everyday to a not so clean house and he doesnt complain or gripe (unless he cant find something which is pretty much all the time.....lol) but he does it in a way that makes me laugh. He loves me and his kids with all his heart and even though there is not much left of him to give by the time he gets home from work, he still tries to give us 100%.



Since our first fight over 5 yrs ago we have learned to fight fair. I sometimes still want to try the crying and whining thing but that dont work and he sometimes still wants to try the sull up and not say a word thing but that dont work either. We have grown as a couple to the point that we know when to keep our mouths shut and when to say something.



He knows me inside and out. He can hear my voice on the phone and know that something is wrong. Even if I telll him nothing, he can still tell and he may not push me about it when we are talking but later when I finally tell him, he says" I knew it". He knows when he walks in everyday whether it is good or if I need 5 minutes to my self or if I need help finishing up supper or just get out of my kitchen and go play with the monsters.. He knows.........



He knows how to push my buttons. We are having a hard time this week cause he took off for a day during his last pay period and he didnt work all of his hours cause he wanted to be home with his babies. He knows when he does this that we run short on money and I know how much he really does not like his job. So I try not to gripe at hime for not working his hours and he tries not to gripe about not being able to eat out on the weekends. I told him last night that I couldnt even get him a card this year. He said not to worry about it. He didnt need it. When I woke up this morning, there was a card on the table from him. He knew it would make me cry. HE knew. But he still done it. He used his lunch money to buy me a silly card. He is not very good at expressing his emotions through talk...he shows them through his actions. And he suceeds everytime in making me cry....



Honey, today on our anniversary. I just want to say that I LOVE YOU! Which you already know. I love you more every day and I think sometimes that I cant love you anymore but then you do something that makes me fall in love with you all over again. I know I said when we got married that if we made it 5 years you could buy me a big diamond (he bought me a little diamond and a $1000.00 recurve bow to go hunting with (my choice) ) but you know what, I dont need the diamond. I dont think I could exchange it for the ring that I have had during these five years. It wouldnt mean the same thing.

So keep the big ring and just come home to me every evening. I would rather have our happiness and my husband at home than to have some big ring shining on my finger and my husband working all the time to pay for it.

Love Your Sweetie Momma Bear.


Thank You all for putting up with my mushiness. I just wish I could express better how special he is to me.

I am so happy that you are so happy! :o) I am sorry that I didn't wish you Happy Anniversary, I forgot. And, I didn't know that you were posting again, you didn't tell me! lol. Anyway,Happy Many More years to you and my crazy brother in law! (And, I don't want a big rock either. My wedding ring is just fine. I can't believe sometimes how silly we used to be, huh?) Love you, Sis
