How sweet it is...

Today is Jonathan and my sixth wedding anniversary. I can't believe it has been that long. I remember back to when we were first married, struggling at BYU as students and working together cleaning toilets to make ends meet! :) All I wanted to do at that time was to go home and relax after a long day at school. One night I told Jonathan that I couldn't wait until six years from then, when we would be done with all our schooling, financially able to buy a frozen pizza if we wanted to (and maybe a house too) and have a couple of kids. And, now here we are, and I must say life is very very good. We are extremely blessed in many ways. But, what I didn't know I would be thinking at this time is that those days six years ago were very good as well. I would love to have that job again just to have more time with Jonathan. It was actually very fun working together and living the simple life we did.

I realize the things I hold most dear in my life now are some of the same things I had six years ago...time with my family and our marriage in the temple. Now we have this beautiful daughter that has brought us more joy than we've ever known...and a little boy on the way. I am so grateful that six years ago we made the choice to be sealed together so that our family can be together forever. That is pure bliss and the only "thing" that I truly want or need.
