Nine Years and Not a Bad Word to Say

There seemed to be a common theme to all of my conversations today (and to even some blog posts that I've read), and I must say that I can't quite wrap my mind around it. I have heard soooo many people complain about their husbands/wives or boyfriends/girlfriends. Not just small complaints like..."I can't believe he never washes the dishes," but huge things like "I hate that (insert expletive here) worthless (expletive)....well you get the point...

I try to listen, but I just keep thinking...then why are you with them. Also, I'm surprised that they have such low respect for their partners that they would say these things publicly. I could never imagine.. in a million years... saying these things about Ten. 

Now, I'm not saying that we don't argue because we do...everyone does, but I feel so extremely thankful and happy that we are married and enjoy all of the moments that we spend together.

Here are a few highlights of our last nine years together:

In our late teens on a trip to Chicago, U.S.A

Four years ago in Bali, Indonesia...pre-marriage holiday

2 years ago in Beijing, China...The Great Wall

Last fall in Hawaii, U.S.A.

This past summer at The Globe in London, England

I'm so grateful that I get to spend everyday with my best friend.
