today is my and Jon's anniversary...14 years ago we got married at St. Jean Vianney Catholic Church in Baton Rouge. My gosh, look how young we look! I was a wreck - thank goodness I had gloves because I had broken out into hives the night before. There were so many details I worried and stressed over because I wanted it all to be "perfect". And, of course, it wasn't. The stupid wedding coordinator stood on my train length veil when I took my 1st step down the aisle and my veil popped off my head. And slid off my head the entire hour and a half mass. Not happy. But, I didn't break down into a bucket of tears during the wedding...Our priest gave the most wonderful homily on how I was light to the world, and Jon was salt of the earth, actually talked what I'm sure everyone felt like was forever about me and how I drove everyone crazy about this wedding, and that I lit up the room with my personality, and that the world was going to be a better place because Jon and I were salt and light and we were getting married. And you know what, I believe that's true...then and now...it has to be - look at what we've done...we've combined two families, and created these two amazing children that are so loving and giving. We are still together, which is isn't always the case these days. You know, there are days where we drive each other completely crazy, but when it comes down to it, we love each other more than anything else in the world. So, happy anniversary Jon...like I said, my life would suck without you. I look forward to happiness for the rest of our lives!
