We're back in our home county now, and it's plain to me that home is wherever you are. I never saw myself living here again, but...as long as I have you and our boys, it doesn't matter much where we are. Having a love and a family like this...remember when it was all just a dream?
I remember being 16 and wondering if I'd ever find where I truly fit. I didn't fit in that well in high school or with any of my friends. But as soon as I met you, I knew I'd found my place. I dreamed of a life where it was just you and I.
Now I'm never afraid to move somewhere or try something new. I know you're by my side, and God will bless us in all of our adventures, as He always has.
I remember when this was all a dream.
We don't know what we're doing. We have no idea where we'll be in five years or where we even want to be. But we have each other. Remember when it was all just a dream?
We thought we knew exactly what we wanted. But life has a funny way of messing up even the best laid plans. And the Lord has His own plans for us that will become apparent in the near future, I'm sure. I don't think our dreams included all the hard things and obstacles to get over, but I guess the hard things are what make us into the people we're really supposed to be.
This year.. well, it's been a year of growth I suppose. And luckily for us, the only way to go is up. Remember when we used to talk for hours of the life we would build together? We're living it now, love. Whether we like it or not!
I couldn't ask for a better life or a better home than I have with you.
In a few years we'll look back at this tough spot, and see how much we've grown. We'll be damn grateful for the trials and the way God steered us in a direction we didn't think we wanted to go. We'll be awed and amazed at where we ended up. And we'll say, remember when this was all just a dream?
