two years have flown by. I can still remember running around on our honeymoon together, for the first time alone on vacation. We had a ball. We were so excited. We were so... young. I know, two years doesn't really mean we're old. But, it feels like it. It feels like we're older, wiser, and understand more about life. I love watching Jr. high and high schoolers now, because I think, "if you only knew what truly mattered."

Now, fast forward two years, and it feels like our wedding was forever ago! But, those two years have been good. So very good! I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him... because he's still my very best friend, and he's still the one that I love with all my heart.

God has been good in the past two years, too! I was chuckling to myself earlier today as I thought about life and marriage and goals. I wanted to be married 2 years and have a baby. I wanted to get a house somewhere around 5 years, earlier if it was possible. I planned and planned... and planned more.

But, I never imagined the house would come before the babies. I never imagined we'd close on a house BEFORE our 2nd anniversary. I never imagined. I never imagined that house would be ripped apart and be close to being whole again in only 4 weeks. I never even thought of redoing an entire house!

But, God. He knew. He knew where we'd live. He knew when we'd buy our first house. He knew it would bring much joy in the midst of this life. He knows that hard work produces contentment. And, He is so right! He is so very good. I can't ever get over it. He gives much that we don't deserve. His goodness overwhelms my soul.

So, today, as I'm waiting for my husband to be done working so we can head to a beach weekend, I'm thankful for plans that didn't get accomplished and surprises that replaced those plans. I'm thankful that God has made me more flexible because I have husband who flies by the seat of his pants. It has made life more rewarding and more interesting. I wouldn't trade him for anything. I wouldn't trade this life for anything.
