I had planned on doing this post back in March too. Well, better late than never I suppose.
It's amazing how relative time can be...how 5 minutes can feel like 5 seconds sometimes, or how 5 years can feel like 50, in some ways. I said SOME ways Bob! Because there are also some days that I can hardly believe it has already been 5 years. I catch myself talking about things that happened "a few years ago" and then I realize it's more like a decade ago.
I hardly remember all the crazy emotions I felt while we were dating. Luckily I wrote a lot of it down in my journal. It was kind of fun to go back and remember the anxiety of it all. Does he like me? How much? Could this be the one?! Not to mention my absolute cluelessness of what it takes to be a step-mom! I still marvel at how lucky I am in that department. Seriously. I couldn't have asked for better kids!
Bob likes to remind me of all that we've done since that time. Sometimes I need a little reminding. I tend to get caught up in wishing for the future. Bob does such a good job of helping us find joy in the journey. And what a journey it has been, so far. I can't help but be curious about what the future holds for us.
