...and I well stay with you

Yesterday was our 1 year anniversary! Can you believe it, it went by way to fast. I was telling Joe that at this rate we are going to have kids, then grand kids and then be dead before we know it. The first year of marriage is interesting. It's not hard it's just a great big learning experience. The one thing I learned the most was compromise. Joe isn't going to want to do everything I want all time and I for sure am not going to want to do what he wants but I learned that it's better supporting and being their for Joe then arguing about it. I was in charge of planning our anniversary so I put the compromising into place. We started our day at the driving range ( for Joe of course). We hit a bucket of balls and even though it was hot we were in the shade so it wasn't that bad. The best part about hitting balls was watching Joe's face as he concentrates. He presses his lips together and his forehead gets all wrinkly, it's the best serious face I've ever seen. After golf we headed off to sushi, which is always amazing. Then to Batman. I love seeing movies, I guess I got that from my dad. I could watch movies at a movie theater all day I just think it is the greatest thing ever. Throughout the day we would ask each other what the best memory about our first year of marriage or dating was. So after dinner I decided to go one by one and name a memory ( a good one of course) that we had of each other and I wrote them down so we would never forget. Joe was a good sport at first but once he started saying naming "inappropriate" things I new he was done so we ended it there.
I am so in love with Joe and am so thankful for his compassion and patients with me. I think I have marriage down for right now, it really is about compromising, I think that makes both of us happy and both get to do what they want. When kids get thrown into the mix i well probably need to learn quit a bit more but that's not for like 5 years according to Joe.
