17 years and counting....

June 19, 1993...what a wonderful day. Looking back over the past 17 years is amazing. I remember sitting in a college geography class, in 1993 so bored, so my friend Stacey and I started planning out our lives. Danny and I were newly married so it was fun to dream what our life together would be like. I am a planner by nature, I love to have a plan so I thought it was a great idea. I wrote down what month and year I would have each of our 4 children (3 boys and 1 girl). When we would move, and where we would live. So many major events in our life. I thought I had a WONDERFUL plan...it looked great on paper. Looking back on that plan now, I realize something...not ONE thing on that list came to pass. LOL

Something else I realize is that the plan the Lord had for Danny and my life together has been even greater than I could have dreamed. I am not saying that the past 17 years have been perfect, but they have been an amazing journey with such happiness and joy I couldn't have imagined. No, I didn't have 5 boys...especially TRIPLET boys on my life plan, but I wouldn't change anything about my actual life. I am so blessed and thankful that 17 years ago I married my best friend and we have 5 amazing boys to share our life with.
