Our wedding day was beautiful. There isn't anything about that day that I would change. My dress was my dream dress, my husband my dream man and my beautiful boys stood atop the stage waiting for their mommy to walk down the isle. My wedding day was a dream come true.
I didn't go into my marriage thinking it was going to be easy by any means. All I knew is that I loved my husband and our children. It wasn't that I could just live with them like the saying goes, it was that I couldn't live without them.
People ask me how after almost 6 years together, my husband and I are still as happy, if not happier, than we were years ago. I don't ever have an answer for this. All I know is that my husband are in this together and we love one another more than we love being right, more than we love anyone else, more than we love ourselves. We talk and never stop. When some things bothered me, I tell him and he tells me. We have have our moments, just as any other couple. If you don't have "moments" I'd worry. Our disagreements bring us together and they're pretty healthy. We don't yell, we don't belittle, we simply discuss. After being together for so long, the big blow ups are no longer there and you learn how to fight.
We don't always get along. Sometimes he gets of my nerves and sometimes I get on his. There are times he needs a night out with his friends just as there are times I need my "me time."
We have dates. We kiss under the stars, we stay up all night and talk and we laugh.
We laugh until it hurts. We also never run out of things to talk about, which is odd considering we've been talking for years. I don't ever get tired of hearing his stories, even when Ive heard them a million times before.
My husband not only looks at me the same way hes always done but he kisses me with such passion and love still. He dances with me in the kitchen, he cooks me breakfast in bed, he leaves me loves notes around the house, he cleans up my vomit when I'm sick, he rubs my feet when hes worked a long day, he plans surprises for me, he suffers through watching reality TV with me even though he hates it, he lets me sleep in, hes the best cook I know and he takes off of work to go to the doctor's with me since I hate going alone.
My husband is a great husband but above that he is the best father which is the ultimate turn on.
We have three beautiful children and I don't hesitate having more with him. I find that not only are my children lucky to have him, but I am as well. When you're married and have children, it adds to the every day stresses you already feel as an adult.
We're always looking for ways to spice things up because after so many years, you just have to. Hell, after 3 kids you have to!
I chose to send my husband a picture. Unfortunately, my stupid self accidentlly sent it to my husbands father. I got so many comments about people asking what ended up happening so here you go:
Nothing.
My father in law never got it. He ended up getting an Iphone and luckily it doesn't support picture messages from my phone carrier. AT&T, I'm sorry for saying you were stupid. Thank you, I owe you big time!
No harm, No foul!
It did a couple of things though. It gave my husband and I a new inside joke. We've not stopped laughing about it. Laughter is the best thing you and your spouse can share. It also assured I will not be sending any more picture messages unless "G rated" and it gave me a confidence boost to see that after giving birth to my daughter, having my abdomen ripped open and being bombarded with health problems since, I'm still hot and I accept my body.
It's not conceded, its confidence. Now when my husband tells me I'm hot, I smile at him rather than shying away from his compliment.
My husband gave me three beautiful babies (so far) and I am proud to call him my baby daddy, my husband, my best friend, my lover, my dirty pictures sending partner.
Marriage isn't easy but it sure is fun!
What are some special things you and your spouse share?

Aww... how cute!
I agree with all that!
I love my husband- and yes we have our "moments" but like you, we learn and grow from those moments.
Marriage is a ton of fun- it's so nice to have that person you can count on, and keep you company.
My husband works from home, and I'm a sahm, so we are together 24/7 LOL we can get on each others nerves sometimes- but for the most part we always get along.
We're lucky gals!
awww what handsome men you have in the fam!
I really love this post. I love my husband and yes we also have our moments... but I coulnt imagine being without him. And I totaly agree that husbands being good fathers is a huge turn on :P
well i'm only engaged right now, but one special thing my future husband and i share is dancing. the first couple of times we hung out together resulted in us dancing the good part of the night. a Christmas party and a New Year eve's party. and for both these events, i've come to realize that we were the only people dancing. i'm thankful to have found a guy who loves to dance just as much as i do, or maybe even more.
My hubby cooks, too - almost every day. He's a great cook. When I was debilitated during and after pregnancy, he took great care of me, did all the housework (since I could barely walk, let alone vacuum..) and accepted all my moods when I was in pain (and still does during that time of the month..).
Since we've moved to a new house with a garden, my husband has built me a composting bin and a huge potting table (which is already filled to the brim with plants I raised from seed...). It may not sound like much to some, but I LOVE gardening, and these are the best gifts he could have given me. He still leaves his dirty socks all over the bedroom floor, but other than that, he'ss a dream
@emra_cadaver@xanga - my hubby dances, too! Aren't we lucky?
My husband and I have this little thing we say when we are saying "I love you". He tells me "Olive Juice" and I tell him "Elephant Food". Your mouth forms the same shape as when you are saying I love you and people around us think we are crazy. We just laugh.
@NotUeberMommy - hahah yes very lucky. my other exes weren't into dancing. him and i share a lot of interests that i thought i'd never find in a guy. i can't wait for married life.
My husband and I enjoy exercising together. We haven't gotten to do it often this summer due to his job, but it's nice to be able to just hang out, no competition required. I really love him, and we get along well even though we have our moments.
My husband and I really got close watching the first season of Heroes on DvD while I was still with my ex. We refuse to watch the show on TV, and always wait for it to hit DvD. When season 2 came out, the first thing we did was run to Best Buy, get us a copy, come home, and marathon it on the couch in a snuggly lump. We'll do the same thing with season 3. It's how we really started connecting, and it's the one thing we won't allow anyone to ruin for us.
This is adorable! I really hope I can have a marriage that you have found for yourself--I think EVERYONE wishes for that! I'm happy that you have such a blissful life. :)
My fiance and I make sure to spend time together. At least twice a month we try to go out on dates. Just me and him. Sometimes, it is isn't too buggy, we go outside and night and just talk. He is the most amazing man I have ever met. We were friends for about three eyars before ever dating but we always knew we would end up together. We also make it a point to have 'family dates' We take our children [my three year old step-daughter and our six month old son] out to dinner or to the park or something. We make sure to spend quality time together. They are only little for so long. :D
