It's my 10th anniversary. Somehow I feel like there are key people in my life who would have liked this marriage to have failed. I take that back, LOVED to see it fail.  Those same people are the ones who would like to most from me and would like me to be utterly devoted to THEM. It makes me sad.
But guess what? I married an amazing person, we were never going to let our marriage fail. Heck, we wouldn't have let it so much as falter!! Instead, we've been in love, happy, produced 4 healthy children and have been really content all the while. So I say, "suck it" to all you non believers. We are doing just fine without your approval.

In the meantime, life moves forward. Next week school resumes. We all cannot wait! I think my kids are tired of looking at me as much as I am tired of hearing them whine for food and entertainment. It's been a long summer. Started off with a bang with me in the hospital having abdominal surgery. The rest of the summer has been spent with me recouperating. end of story.
