Jazz got me going on this, so I'm going to keep it going here:
Waiting 6 years to have a child, having him come and be the most amazing miracle I've ever experienced. The times together watching the sunsets in Hawaii. Cuddling on the couch at night after school or work and falling asleep together while the TV was still going. Moving together to different cities for my work and still just loving being together all the time. Waling hand in hand to church on Sundays. Carrying our new born son with us or taking walks with him in the stroller to now him riding his bike or scooter. Beach-bike rides through the neighborhood. Going on our first cruise and running around like crazy people to make sure we got to do everything there was to do (and STILL gaining 7 lbs in the process). Going to every movie we ever wanted to see together. Getting through grad school, buying our first house and feeling that pride and knowing we'd be together forever. Taking our son to the mall so he could play on the kids' toys, Taking him to his first movie and watching him eat more popcorn as a 3-year old than either of us adults had ever eaten. Listening to him repeat lines from Cars and cracking up. Trying to teach her how to golf. Trying to learn tennis together. Going to the gym together...
Playing in the snow together and having S run into the cabin faster than Michael Johnson because he thought there were Mountain Lions around. Going to the reservoir with friends and having the best time just being together - easily one of the best pics of the three of us came from this trip too. Riding a motor-scooter 41 miles in Mexico to see a blowhole! (The map said it was 20) she held me the whole way, I've never felt better. Going to a Mexican food restaurant in Dallas that had food so hot my W actually started sweating. Going for deep-dish pizza in Chicago and both of getting so fat, we thought we'd burst. Eating a whole 5-lb bag of gummy bears over one weekend snowed into our apartment.
Man, I can remember everything as though it was yesterday...
We can talk ourselves into defeat or we can talk ourselves into victory - we are creatures of our thinking.
