3 Years

Yesterday was our anniversary.It seems like we have been married forever but it has only been 3 years. That number surprises me. It should be more like 13 or 30. I feel like I have been with Steve all of my life even though I know in reality I have not. He came in yesterday afternoon bearing pink roses. Two colors of pink roses. He knows I love pink roses. I know he is going to bring me pink roses for special occassions. I anticipated the roses all day.

They are gorgeous. Sometimes I don't think he hears me when I am talking a mile a minute. Yesterday he surprised me. He also brought me a small tiller for my garden.

WOOT! I scored big time! It is something I really wanted. And he listened and retained that information for a long time. In return he is getting electric fencing. Yes, it is something he really wants. Aren't we the nerdiest little farmers you ever met?

You two are simply adorable and I think it is great you give eachother what you want and it is practical. I am a practical person.

The roses are beautiful!

Happy Anniversary! Hubby and I will be 20 years in the fall which I think really is forever considering I was 21 when we married! Ouch! I've been married almost 1/2 my life!?!?!?!?

And I think I know why you will be needing that electric fence. Can't wait for the update.

And I know why you need electric fencing. Can't wait for the update.

Happy anniversary sweetie! I feel like you have been together forever too but that's probably because I met you 2 years ago :)The roses (and the tiller) are beautiful! CONGRATS!!

It seems that couples who invest in the 'smaller' statements ('I heard you', 'I was listening', etc) seem to last longer and be happier.

Those that invest in the 'larger' statements (couch jumping, grand gestures, extremes etc) generally seem to be like the wind: for the moment only.

Happy Anniversary. May there be many more.
