Happy Anniversary

Today is our anniversary. 16 years and 3 children ago we both said "I do." We are still head over heels, crazy in love but also solid and steady, everyday in love too.

This morning I took the kids to play in the park. On the way I asked Kaylee if she knew what today was. She said she knew it was our anniversary. So I asked her if she'd babysit tonight so Derek & I could go out. Her response was: "Will I get paid?" I said: "You could give us some babysitting as an anniversary present." To which Kaylee responded: "I'll give you half off!" What a gal!

So this evening Derek & I went out to dinner and to the cheap theatre to see Prince Caspian . (Oh yeah, and we booked a cruise for November!) When we got home Kaylee had fed the boys mac-n-cheese, was watching T.V. with Nate and had Max in bed (in a clean diaper & jammies). We asked her how everything went and she told us all she had done then said: "No charge!" What a gal!!

Yay for almost teen older siblings! Happy anniversary guys! What an amazing journey God allows us to walk together as each other's "ezer" (which some have translated not just as helper...but more accurately...a lifesaver.)See ya Thursday!
