June 3, 2006 was one of the happiest days in my life. I got to marry my best friend, and the man God made just for me. We got married at 5:00 pm on Fort Mountain in Chatsworth, GA at the Cohutta Lodge. It was the prettiest day ever! Even now, I wouldn't change a thing about that day.
Five years later, I can honestly say that I love Quinn more than I did standing at that alter. He is the father of my children. He is my comforter. He is my partner in everything-good and bad. I bet I call him 10 times a day, and we always have something to talk about. I am still learning things about him- he doesn't like cheddar cheese and thinks strawberry flavoring makes every soft drink better. He can still make me laugh. I love watching him with the boys. I think he secretly likes Thomas the Train as much as Bennett and I know he likes Kung Fu Panda even more. We watch Jeopardy together-only in part, we have two kids, remember? He is super smart on the exact opposite things I am.
Don't get me wrong. No marriage is perfect, just like no person is perfect. We have had disagreements on money, housing, parenting, and of course the S word!! But we have never raised our voice at each other and never said anything super hurtful in the heat of an arguement. Sometimes I want to shake him. I am sure he NEVER feels the same way:) But overall, I would chose him to spend the day with over any other person in the world. No matter what. So, we have 5 years down. And a lifetime ahead of us.
