on this day in history...

6 years ago today, it was snowy.  similar to today, except we weren't expecting it.  the day before, it was sunny, warm and beautiful.  then on the 15th, we woke up to snow.  and it only got worse as the day went on.
6 years ago today, my mom was very sick.  throwing up.  a 24 hour bug that hit during the worst 24 hours probably ever.
6 years ago today, it wasn't perfect.
but 6 years ago today, i married the most wonderful man.
and 6 years later, it hasn't been perfect.  it's been bumpy.  it's been a journey.  a roller coaster.  but i am so so thankful i've been on this ride with him.
 we've lived in an apartment the size of a large shoebox.
graduated college together.
bought a house.
started and ended jobs.
went on cruises.
had a baby.
switched churches.
grew closer together than we were on that day, 6 years ago.
 we were so young!  so naive!  
i'm so blessed to call my husband my best friend.  
he's patient when i'm losing it, funny when i need a laugh and the only person that could drive me so crazy.  
thanks babe.  thanks for a wild 6 years.  thanks for stepping up and being an outstanding father and leader.  thanks for loving me when i'm unlovable.  thanks for letting me be bossy.
