I am so blessed to have such a wonderful husband. A man who was my best friend long before he became the love of my life, and who I can still say IS my best friend. A man who emphatically said to me last night when sleep deprivation and too much to do got the best of both of us, "I am committed to you forever," and I knew that he meant it. A man who still gives me butterflies.
Together, we made up this "Top 10 list" of things we have learned in the past 5 years.
10. Quality time is not just important - it's essential!
9. It's not about winning, it's about being a team.
8. We may have learned a lot about each other, but there is more to learn everyday.
7. Never leave the house without saying, "I Love You."
6. Even though we didn't think it was possible, we love each other more now than the day we said, "I do."
5. Growing indoor or outdoor plants is best left to professionals.
4. Communication stops most fights before they start.
3. Saying "I'm sorry," and forgiveness shows the love of Jesus to your spouse.
2. Find something that you enjoy doing together - and do it often!
and...
1. Never go to bed angry.

Happy Anniversary! What a great list. My best friend's 5th is today as well; a great day for celebrating!
What a month for celebrating... happy anniversary! A beautiful list pointing straight to what makes you beautiful as a couple... your love for each other and for Jesus. Here's to many, many more!
