5 Years

We have been married for 5 years. We have had some good times and some not so good times, but even when things got so bad and hard, we didn't give up. I am thankful for Kevin in my life. Without him I would not have two beautiful girls, which we love so much. I just want everyone who reads this to know how much I do love Kevin. I know I have told some negative things about our marriage to others, but I also want you all to know what a great loving man he is, a great father to the girls. Kevin is wonderful and puts up with me and all my baggage. (trust me it's a lot.) With out Kevin I don't think I would really know what life is. I use to always think that you fall in love, get married, have kids and that's your life. I know now that everyday you should fall in love with your spouse all over again. I have not done that. I can see the affect it had on us. I do believe that I am now falling in love with Kevin everyday. Kevin has brought me many good days. He brings me joy in this world, I do love him and am thankful for his love to me. We are the type who does not say it daily, and that's ok. I do know that my husband loves me anyways. For the good and the bad. I think that is what true love is. Someone who will love you even when you hurt them the most. I know I have done things in our marriage to hurt Kevin, but he is still here with me. That's love. So to my wonderful husband Kevin. I do love you. I want you to know. I know on our wedding day we danced to the song " The day before you. " I would like to have a new song and this is what it is.

" God gave me YOU"

I’ve been a walking heartache
I’ve made a mess of me
The person that I’ve been lately
Ain’t who I wanna be

But you stay here right beside me
And watch as the storm blows through
And I need you

Cause God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
And for when I think I lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it’s true
God gave me you
Gave me you

There’s more here than what we’re seeing
A divine conspiracy
That you, an angel lovely
Could somehow fall for me
You’ll always be love’s great martyr
And I’ll be the flattered fool
And I need you

God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
And for when I think I lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it’s true
God gave me you

On my own I’m only
Half of what I could be
I can’t do without you
We are stitched together
And what love has tethered
I pray we never undo

Cause God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
And for when I think I lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it’s true
God gave me you, gave me you.
He gave me you.

I love you Kevin.
