What a Surprise! Thanks Honey!


Today seemed the same as any other with endless diaper changes, toy pick-up, and household chores. The kids were a little difficult today with Jesson starting ANOTHER cold, and Conor struggling with teething. Our morning was spent out for a "sanity walk" as Conor sleeps in the stroller and he wouldn't at home today. The afternoon was naps as usual and even Mom got one too. It was the evening that took a turn for the best! Once I had supper in the oven, the littlest one was content, and Jesson had a snack and juice, I headed to the basement for a shower...finally. When I came upstairs I was greeted in the dining room by my teary-eyed husband, 6 carnations, a bottle of our favorite red, our wedding processional song, and a card that left me bawling. You see today is the 6 year anniversary of the day Scott proposed to me. It was about the same time of day too. I was so surprised that all I could do was cry. Jesson came into the room as I was reading the beautiful card Scott had written. He looked at me as I was reading and noticed me crying, he thought for a minute, then looked at the floor and he started bawling too, followed shortly by Conor who didn't want to be left out. Once we'd all wiped our faces it was time for a toast. Scott poured us wine and I headed to the kitchen to get Jesson a glass too. Scott asked Jesson if he'd like to make a toast and his answer was "Umm, yes please, with butter!". We toasted to 6 eventful years and many more to come then ate a candlelight dinner of a different sort. Demanding table manners from our toddler, scraping pablum off of our infant, and giggling about how our family dynamic has changed in just 6 short years. We can hardly wait to see what the coming years will bring us. I Love You Babe! Posted by Picasa
