What I see in the above picture is JOY – our beloved friends and family cheering us on after our vows. What I feel when I look at this picture is TRIUMPH. Overcoming a tricky road to get to our wedding day and 3 years later, still working on our insecurities and processing our pasts to be the best spouse we can be for each other and now, for our children.
I am proud to call this man my loyal husband and father to our family and I aim to make him proud of me each and every day. Thanks for loving me and enduring my crazy for the past 5 years hon – when you meet a girl that looks like a high schooler in Haiti, you should’ve known what you were in for. Cheers to many more years (and kids and craft projects and nagging and sinks full of dishes to wash after your 48 hour shifts)….

P.S. See? I told you I wouldn’t post a sappy Facebook picture of us. That’s what the new blog is for.
