In 18 years, I\u2019ve learned that the good times don\u2019t last forever and that the awful times sometimes carry with them unimaginable beauty. It\u2019s not about whether it\u2019s easy or it\u2019s hard, it all comes down to who\u2019s next to you and holding your hand along the way.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

I\u2019m very fortunate that it\u2019s been this guy for all the celebrations, the challenges, the silliness, the seriousness, the painful hard choices, and the times that were easy.<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

Here\u2019s hoping that year 19 is a little less exciting that the past two have been. I\u2019m about ready for some of that simple\u2026..what d\u2019ya say?<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n

Happy Annifathersversary Day, my dear. I can\u2019t wait to see what this next year brings! (unless it looks like the past six months. If it does, wanna run away with me to the beach?)<\/div>\n
