Happy 4 Years, Shady!!!

Well, sweetheart, we made it to four years. Here is a snapshot of the last four years. Between moving, changing jobs, and new additions.

Honeymooned in Chattanooga for about 2 days.
We moved you into the basement apartment @ the Slane’s.
We bought the red car.
I played a lot of gigs with Rod & NMW.
We got flooded out of the basement apt so we moved to your mom and dad’s house. They weren’t living there yet.
You were working for JT and I for SS&P.
You rode along on a trip to Mobile during one of my driving days.
We moved to Gadsden.
Sophie-cat came to live with us.
We moved back to forestdale on Ogden…now occupied.
We moved to Hueytown to renovate and own.
I went to work teaching for Erwin HS…bad idea.
Daisy came to live with us.
I went to BI, you stayed home.
Renovations from the church on the house.
Bye-bye red car.
We sold the Hueytown house
Found out we were preggers with little bear.
Moved to the CityView Loft – only 600 sq ft.
Helped renovate the CityView.
Changed jobs again – Plumbing Project Manager
Bye-bye Saturn…hello, Taurus.
Got laid off.
Got hired by the University.
Little Bear was born October 2006.
Moved to G’dale on Dec 26, 2006.
Became a work-a-holic holding three jobs and 70+ hours per week.
Preggers again
Bentley was borm.
Our second baby died.
Trip to beach on Easter Sunday.
We renewed our love and marriage.

I know that we have had a lot of change. I know that change is difficult. But there is one thing that I hope never changes. And that is that my desire if for you and little bear…and any other little pitter-patters that come along. You are a wonderful mother and the best wife ever. Thanks for always standing beside me. Your character is very pleasing to my soul.

And you are “far superior to my cocker spaniel.” (White Christmas with Bing and Danny K.)
