Celebrating 18 years with this man. My husband.
Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive, and it is only by this meeting that a new world is born. - Anais Nin
For 18 years,
- Chad has called me "beautiful."
- Chad has shown me that I can believe in forever.
- Chad has gone with me on early morning long runs even though he is not a morning person.
- Chad has inspired me to challenge myself.
- Chad has made me a better person.
- We have shared the housework. He's a great cook!
- We have been friends.
- We have made each other laugh.
- We have laughed at and learned from our mistakes.
- Chad has been patient with my tendency to go to extremes.
- We have made each other a priority.
- We have been parents (for almost 15 of the 18 years).
- We have given each 100% support in everything we do.

Happy Anniversary! I'm a new follower joining in on Fitness Friday for the first time. Love the picture of your husband sleeping in the car. Mine has taken to riding his bike while I do my long runs. He carries my water and keeps an eye on me so I'm safe out on the back roads. Can't beat that!
