Tom and I were married on this date nine years ago. With lots of life and a combination of seven children under our belts, we had what is termed “baggage”.
Still, we were in love and determind that we would make a life together.
Here we are, after nine years full of bumps, tears, triumphs and joy. In that time we have gained a daughter-in-law, two sons-in-law and a grandson. We have lost, too- parents, a nephew, a brother-in-law and several really great friends.
We have shared great joy and great sorrow.
This is life. This is what we pledged to walk through with one another.
