We’re coming up on 14 years of marriage on February 14th. It’s been 22 years since our first date. 15 years since my husband asked me to marry him on a sunny Valentine’s Day off the California coast.

There has been a lot of life in between then and now. A lot of buckets. A lot of happiness and a lot of trials. A lot of in-betweens and big decisions and small moments. A lot of coffee and breakfasts. A lot of spending evenings perched like bookends on our couch discussing The Next Big Steps.

And I hope there will be a lot more to follow. Hopefully more blessings than hardships, more happiness than sadness, more good than bad.

Here’s to some kind of wonderful love in your life today and tomorrow and forever after.
