Half my life

I know I usually think things like this are cheesy but today I celebrate half my life with my husband. I was married at 18 and today we celebrate 18 years. These 18 years have not been easy. As a matter of fact they have been harder than I expected. I feel like our relationship has been manic depressant, our highs have been very high, Our children's birth, buying our first house, returning home from deployment and our lows have been down right depressing. I've cried more than I ever expected from the pains he has caused and I know I have inflicted wounds too, but they have healed and are healing with salve and kisses. I am grateful for this opportunity to be with him 18years later. I think of of all the cheesy songs, I think about  all the nights one of us slept on the couch. I think about how we both are determined and stubborn and sometimes that was the only reason we stayed in this marriage. But here we are. I love you honey. I truly do and we are here together. Through thick  or thin, through the roller coaster ride. I love you and no matter what that will always stay true.
