On Love and Marriage

i love this man, very very very much. We were lucky enough to have him home the past six days! WOOO HOOO!!!!!!! Yesterday, this man had to go bak to work, and the babes and I were pretty bummed.

As I get older, I realize that there are all types of families and marriages. The work-a-holics, the ones that spend five minutes a day together, the ones that barely talk...... we are the family that does everything together. We eat breakfast lunch and dinner together, even Daddy, he drives home on his lunch break to eat with us. We go grocery shopping together, we talk about the favorite parts of our day while laying in the big bed at the end of the night.
We enjoy just being together doing nothing, or something, it doesn't matter

We like each other.

No.

 We love each other. Really truly love each other.
The way down deep to the bottom of your soul love

 We are a family because we want to be, not because we have to be. Steve and I will have been together for 10 years this month. Wowza. We met when I was a senior in high school. We got married young, and had babies young. We struggled through growth spurts and the crappy things life sometimes has to offer. We've had rough patches, but thats what's made us so grateful for our life now. I love my husband. I love him as the father of my babes, and the guy that rubs my head every night with out asking until I fall asleep. Even on the days we can't stand each other, we are good together. We respect each other, we laugh together, we still hold hands when we're out and about. We have made our babies and each other our first and foremost priority.

The past six days have been wonderful. The babes and I were spoiled by having him home. And although yesterday and today have sucked without him, I think its pretty cool that after all these years , we still miss each others company this much. So here's wishin' the next Daddy vacation comes soon, cause I could always use some doin' nothin' or doin' somethin' with him.
