From This Day Forward

Do you remember the day you met your husband for the first time? Do you remember the first time he smiled? Your first kiss? The first tear in his eye after your first child was born? There are no words to describe the butterfly feelings that comes with those touching moments. In those moments it was as if you were both stuck in slow motion and all the world around you had faded to black and white. After years of marriage, kid #1 and kid #2, it is difficult to regain those precious moments. It seems like such a task to create that slow motion moment again. As a busy mom of two, I know this all too well. My dear sweet husband is a patient man. He's a man of honesty and unconditional love and I am here to say that from this day forward I am going to try to recreate those special moments when we get lost in each other's presence. I want this year to be a year that we remember forever - not for the bad but for the moments that take our breath away. I want to love my husband more and more with every passing day, for when I do, we will in turn share that unconditional love with our beautiful children.
