unbelievable

unbelievable....today i have been married for 14 years!!!! i never thought it possible for someone like me to even get married, let alone stay married for 14 years! they have not all been perfect, and there has been ups and downs and many bumps, but i think we have both grown and matured in love in friendship and in life. i used to think that people married this long were really old! which makes me really old, now. it seems odd. mostly things are going well these days, tomorrow we eat dinner with the popes and i like them. the kids are well, zed is away again at summer camp, and kennedy is going to visit her mom this weekend. i know that the coming weeks will be difficult, we have informed kennedy's mom that she will have to move out when the kids start school, not sure what this is going to mean but i am sad. i hope it works out the way that it is supposed to. dave is taking the kids on their annual backpacking trip this weekend, and i am hoping to keep busy with friends. school is just around the corner and i am getting anxious, but i can tell that i am learning to be more assertive, i fought for my son to get the classes he really wanted and i think he is going to have an awesome year. i hope that this our 14th year of marriage is better than the 13th, i have a strong hunch it will be..................
