Anniversary


Happy Anniversary, Baby!

We were so busy with the new baby experience last year that we really didn't have the chance to mark this occasion properly, but today is an important anniversary, as it marks the day Michelle and I met. It was a moment and a day that opened a whole new and exciting chapter in our lives, and I'm so blessed and lucky that it happened.

Like I'm sure many couples are, we have many special anniversaries, but this one and our wedding day (January 5) are the big ones. I don't always make a huge deal out of anniversaries. I try to make a huge deal out of every day that we are together. Waiting for a special occasion to buy flowers or gifts or to show affection or love makes it seem very hollow to me. I count my blessings every day. But still, you like to do maybe a little extra something special on your anniversary, just to keep some little surprises in life.

My sweetie will get hers when she hops in the shower this morning. I had to skip going with her yesterday to get the baby photos done so I would have a chance to install it. Turns out it was easier than I thought it would be, but it still took 15 minutes to get everything out, set it up, then hide all the evidence. I was just about to bust many times yesterday wanting to tell her that I had a surprise for her, but every time I got close, I managed to hold back and wait so she could be surprised on our anniversary. I knew if I told her I had a surprise for her, she would get it out of me in about 10 minutes.

I had a big, dopey grin on my face many times yesterday, and I think she knew I was up to something, but she had mercy on me and didn't force it out of me. One of many reasons I love her. And I know she doesn't need me to do silly things like this to show her that I love her, but I love to do them anyway.

You're lucky I've got to run to go get Justin right now. I can't believe you got away with that, you little sneak! I can't believe I DIDN'T see that monster of a shower head in the bathroom, god I'm such a dope. I do now know what scared the shit out of me at 6:30 am LOL.

I knew I should have pushed it out of you yesterday, you kept smiling like a big dope all day. I even told you last night to stop smirking, you said "I'm not smirking, I'm very happy!" Yeah right...You are so gonna get it when you get home you bum... Gotta go, I'm late!

I love you so much! Happy anniversary baby! That picture brings back many memories and it was nice seeing it up on my computer 'tis morning!

Well, you didn't see it all day because I kept the shower door closed and hung my towel over it completely so you couldn't see in. I did mention showering several times yesterday. :)

Yes logically you did, you got a haircut and was itchy, how was I supposed to get it from that lame hint? Better hints next time baby or the doghouse for you LOL! I'm gonna go try out that monster right now! MEOW!

You haven't mentioned how much I have complained about our whimpy shower head that you bought last year and how nasty I think it is! That part really makes it apparent how nice a new BIG shower head is to me!
