Traditional anniversary gifts for the 9th year are pottery and willow. Although I didn't receive either of those romantic options, I did receive something much more heartfelt...I woke to a warm home that my husband affords us, I woke to a delicious breakfast especially made for me by my personal chef, I woke to a card full of loving words from the man I adore, I woke to a vase full of roses that were grown in my own backyard, I woke to two gorgeous children calling me Mommy, I woke to a wonderful life - all thanks to my husband of nine years. Thank you Chooch for it all! You're my man.
Who needs pottery and willow anyway?!
Special thank you to Mom and Dad for taking the kids and giving us time for each other this evening.
