Time goes by...
This afternoon Mothra finally left us. She was residing at the far edge of the deck. As I was mentioning in the comments in the last post, she will only live for a couple days. She has no mouth to eat with. She is out looking for love... Or sex I suppose!

Speaking of the birds and bees, it is our 16 year dating anniversary. Tomorrow is our 5 year wedding anniversary. At this point we have spent over half of our lives together. It is hard to bring to mind the greatest memories of my life and not see Counting Blessings by my side. Harder still is to envision a future without her there. I could have never imagined the place our love is today in our first summer of dating; even on the day we were married. The in-laws will be watching the little one. Hot rock massage reservations are made. Dinner as well, at a place we used to frequent when we were dating. We will spend the night at the place we stayed on our wedding night. This time we're hoping to get to use the pool! Many of my friends used to ask me how it felt to be together for so long. I’d say it feels like it’s been forever, but forever wasn’t a long time. It feels like it has always been this way and this was the way it was meant to be. I look back and thank God for all our memories together. I look forward to the future and await what is in store for us and our family.

Awww!! Congratulations, you two!
I wish the two of you many many happy years together!
That is such a beautiful way of putting it.
We're coming up on our 7-year wedding anniversary and our 14-year dating anniversary. (We haven't been together continuously, but we've always been friends.) There's something special about having known someone for that much of your life.
Have a great time celebrating!
Wonderful post.
Happy Anniversary! Wishing you both much love and happiness now & always.
What a wonderful marriage and life you have forged. I know God's blessings are already bountiful in your life, but I send more for the years to come. Happy Anniversary!!!!
