To The One I Love...

Wow, I can hardly believe that it has been four years since I married the love of my life. It has gone by so fast but when I think back on all the many experiences that we have gone through, it amazes me what we have accomplished together in such a short amount of time.

I recently came to the realization that we have experienced a lot of "4s" together. The most obvious one being "4" wonderful years of marriage, full of laughter, some sorrow and a lot of change for both of us. Then there have been the "4" cars that we have owned (2 of which have been totalled), "4" pregnancies (2 painful miscarriages followed by our beautiful daughter Abby and our "soon-to-be" baby boy), we have lived in "4" different states (Utah, Texas, Arizona and now Maryland), and we have survived "4" major job changes (Baker Botts, Intel, Conco-Phillips and Citi.)

Now as we prepare to add the "4th" member to our little family, it makes me very excited to see what our "4"-ever has in store. I am so eternally grateful for a loving Heavenly Father who knew exactly what He was doing when He sent you to me. I love you Jason, more than words can even begin to say. Happy Anniversary!!!
