grow old with my husband

But we survived the quitting smoking thing! And I got a cool new job, so now he’s going to go back to school – I work at a wonderful job with great people who accept and value me the way I am, so suddenly, I’m wearing my hippy clothes again and working out again and I’ve got this braid thing I do behind my left ear, and I’m thinking about getting a tattoo… We’ve started holding hands and snuggling while we walk through the mall, and our daughter just thinks that’s way too cool. Things just keep getting better and better.

So are we growing older together, or younger? Whatever. Doesn’t matter.

Our tenth anniversary today – my present to him was that I got a nice new job. His present to me is that he’s quitting smoking. Today was his first whole day, cold turkey. Of course, we knew it would be this way, but he’s been cranky and nasty all day long. If this keeps up, we won’t make it to our eleventh!

And it took both of us to get her undressed, into her jammies and into bed. I think we’re both getting gray hairs from this wild kid, so does that count as growing old together??
