One Day.


Oh how I wish Madi and I were both that young again! Tomorrow (just one more day!) she'll be turning 15 and I'm overwhelmed with the thought of her being so grown! It's so crazy & I have some serious mixed emotions - I'm feeling a little sad and nostalgic but at the same time, I'm feeling blessed, happy, and excited for whats ahead!

 I ♥ this girl so much!

Looking back...



Our first Easter together. Jack & I were engaged. He was clean shaven and had less gray hair (I don't mind the change - he looks better today with a little more age, all that gray and the beard) , Madi had just turned 7, was in love with Jack and was shy as can be. And me - well, I was happy! I'm really glad I don't have that hair style anymore, but back then, I was happy and I felt beautiful because Jack made me feel beautiful. He still makes me feel beautiful. 

Anyway, I thank God for giving me a 2nd chance at love and for placing a real man/father/husband in mine and Madi's life. He works so hard for us and loves us so totally and completely. He's my other, better half and today, looking back on this photo, I would do it all over again. I would choose him and this life we have built - without a doubt.
