Lucky in Love... Year Four

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Today is our fourth wedding anniversary, and honestly I think this past year has been the biggest blur so far. 

Our lives are so busy, and our little guy is growing up so fast -- it's hard to keep up. Between a busy new job, a firefighter's schedule, and a calendar full of toddler activities, we sadly weren't able to plan our traditional fancy dinner celebration this year. But we're hoping to fit it in one of these days soon...

In the meantime, look at the beautiful (green!) bouquet that Stewart sent to me!

I had the best of intentions to get a photo of Ryder in his St. Patrick's Day outfit, but the poor little guy apparently had an exhausting day, because he passed out on the couch early and this is the best I was able to get... 

My sweet little leprechaun... 

This past year of marriage has definitely taught us that being parents challenge a couple in ways that you could never even imagine... Especially way back when you were young, naive newlyweds. I'll admit that through the stress and sleep deprivation, I don't always handle every situation as gracefully as I should or could. But Stew supports me day in and day out, and I could never get through this crazy life without him. 

We're so lucky that we found each other...
