13 Years of Marriage!

Today is our 13th wedding anniversary.

It hasn’t been easy, but we made it this far!

Marring a man with 3 small boys to help raise and being a stepmother to them had been a strain on our marriage. ( Thankfully, they’re grown and out of the house now) My husband has had his own demons to attend too, as well. Than we lost our oldest son in 2003 and the depression that follows is difficult to deal with. Now, my husband has been diagnosed with MS and we’re trying to cope with that.

But you know, we made it through it all those obstacles and more and we’re still here. I can’t imagine not being with my husband, he’s my best friend. I finally got my little boy and little girl and now we’re set to make it through another 13 years!
