True Love

Isaac and I met each other 16 years ago and have been married for 12 years. He swears it was love at first sight, and while it took me longer to be convinced, we have been best friends for a long time. When we first got married our love was new and exciting and fun. People told us our love would change and grow, but I wasn't sure I wanted it to because it seemed so perfect already. However, over the years our love has become deeper and more lasting, and still perfect. (Don't get me wrong, we've had rough patches, disagreements, and - gasp- we've gone to bed angry! ) We've had many adventures together, including the 5 children that we are blessed with, which means many sleepless nights. In the beginning I thought true love was romantic dinners, flowers every Friday, and lying out on a blanket looking at stars. It's not, it's a kiss on the cheek and a closed door because he's taking care of the baby so I can sleep!
