Ten years ago, right about now....
I woke up earlier then normal for me and had a really long bath. I sat there and kept thinking (mostly in disbelief) "today is my wedding day!!!" I had some breakfast and puttered around. Mom knew I was still tired and restless, so I laid down on her & dad's bed. She gave me a shoulder rub and off I went back to sleep. A few hours later the busy-ness of a wedding ensued.
And then at 4pm I was taking deep breaths standing in between my mom & dad. I was trying to settle the butterflies in my stomach.....I was nervous. Not nervous because of what I was about to do, but nervous because of all the people watching me walk down the proverbial aisle to join with this man for life.
I have been thinking alot about our wedding day lately. Many people say that their wedding day was the best day of their life. Honestly? I don't know. That day & the day Lucy was born are very-very important to me. But now, ten years later I have come to realize the day(s) more important then that day: September 29, 2000. They are-
3,650 days of better
3,650 days of worse
3,650 days of richness
3,650 days of hardship
3,650 days of sickness
3,650 days of health
3,650 days of love
While September 29, 2000 will always be very special to us....today, I'm more grateful for the 3,650 days in between. Because those 3,650 days prove that we meant what we said in our vows 10 years ago today. Here's to hoping we keep that sentiment for the rest of our lives.............
Happy Anniversary to my Glenn.....I am a very lucky woman
