The Day That I Gained a Major Holiday Date For Life!

Today I am celebrating my three year anniversary with my husband. I couldn't be happier. He is my number fan, my rock, my supporter. When I think I just can't do it and I want to pull the plug on this crazy blog project of mine he is there to talk me out of it.

When I found out that I was pregnant, I was scared that he was going to run away. He took my hand and said, "WE'RE going to be okay"

At times I'm irrational, more times than others I am irritated beyond consoling but he is there to give me my space and when I finally let go of whatever it was that robbed me of my energy he rubs my back or gives me a hug letting me know it's okay. I can be a difficult woman, I won't lie. I am lucky that he is man enough to be patient and he loves me just the way I am.

He is the best husband and father I could have asked for - he gets the job done. He will change a smelly diaper without any complaints. He has cleaned the crib mattress our daughter got sick on many times at 12 or 1AM.

He is a true partner.

I once thought I was the unmarrying kind. Not that I didn't believe in the union, I was just paranoid of being with a man that would philander or leave me - it's what I am use to seeing in my family. I was skeptical and everytime I gave my heart to a man, my timing was off or bad things happened. I guess I accepted the fate that I wasn't deserving of that kind of pure love.

I am glad that I was wrong.

 At SF City Hall. I have to mention that I was also 7 months pregnant in this photo.I like telling our daughter that she was there at the wedding too.

This is my other favorite photo from that day:

A quiet moment of pure happiness - I found my partner for life.

If we did have a traditional wedding, we would have danced to this song:

Back to writing about eye shadow and lipstick tomorrow!

I'm also lucky that he's planning to build a makeup storage unit for me since we don't have room in our bedroom for a vanity table.
