I played a little matchmaker this weekend and for the most part I think I did good! The set up was made before Christmas and it went well. But the guy wanted another "group" setting before he asked the girl out on a real date (totally understandable to me). So we had a game night this past Saturday and it was a lot of fun! I'm purposely not mentioning any names just in case it doesn't work out. I'll try to refer back to this story if it was indeed a success just in case anyone's interested in my matchmaking skills! :)
Eric and I were pillow-talk talking last night and we realized that we have been through a lot together in the 4 years and 4 months of being with each other. We have gone through a death in the family, addictions, a bad experience in NY, debt, moving 5 times (me - 5, eric - 2), planning a wedding, getting pregnant and experiencing ALL the hormonal issues there, and then the labor! Even though we've been together for four years and married for only one of those years, I feel like we've experienced and learned what couples do in 7+ years. After reminiscing what we went through, Eric asked, "Why did you stay with me?" The only answer I had and ever will have is, "Because I love you." We have definitely had our up moments too: trip to Hawaii, Thanksgivings in Delaware, getting engaged on a cruise, our fabulous wedding, paying off our debt, finding out we were pregnant (priceless), the start of the contractions (another priceless moment) and last but certainly not least, seeing our baby boy for the first time! I love my husband so much and I love the life we share now and until forever.
