Happy Anniversary to Me


So today is my 5th wedding anniversary, and I'm married to the best man I know. I so often take him for granted and become self-centered. As a stay-at-home-mom, I easily slip into a "woe is me" mentality because I have to "deal with the kids" all day. In reality, we have the two most beautiful children on this earth and have such deep joy and love as a result of them. Not only that, but I married a man who is an incredible daddy. I love that my kids light up when he gets home from work...that they choose him over me when he gets home. That he puts everything on hold until after bedtime so that he can play, play, play. That he's not afraid to get his hands dirty and gets right in there with bath time, bed time, and even those dirty diapers. And that he loves me in spite of me. So here's to my love, my parenting partner, my best friend. Happy Anniversary!

And since I'm feeling so loved today, I'm going to share the love with you. I'm giving you a choice of what you want to win. Below I've posted 3 items...a Lauren Headwrap (size: women's), a Harper Beanie (size: choice of newborn-adult), and The Coastal Knotty Top Beanie (size 0-3 months). Post a comment of which item you would like to win. I will draw a winner tonight and post the winner on my Facebook page.





CONTEST OVER...winner has been determined. Thanks for participating!!

    Yay for marriage!!! I'd love any of the 3 to be honest. If I'd have to pick, I'd say the beanie (age 2 girl) but the baby knot tie is super cute!
