Happy Anniversary

{pic taken at the hospital when i had the twins}

I met my prince charming back when I was in 7th grade.

His first words? "Can I have your school picture?"

and my response.. "Yeah, as long as you don't look at it" (I don't know? nervous I guess.)

We wrote notes but never really hung out.

He then left to the high school and I never spoke to him until....

Sophomore year.

He had a thing for me and I had a thing for him... and lots of other boys. (not wanting a "relationship")

After his persistance, we made it official 13 days after my 16th birthday.

All of high school was "Darren and Janessa".. Two peas in a pod. :)

We went through heaven (and a taste of hell)

We loved each other.

Then came GEORGIA for him.

and COLLEGE YEARS for me.

We both grew and learned A LOT during this time period.

Darren's homecoming was a roller coaster of emotions.

All that matters is that we knew what and who we wanted and most importantly which direction in life we wanted to take.

Marriage :)

If you were to ask me at that point in time...

Where will you be in 5 years?

My answer? Hopefully Darren will be working and me at home... a toddler with a child on the way. Sounds pretty good.

Instead, what we got?

3 kids in 3 years!

The best 3 years of my life and EVERY YEAR GETS BETTER!

I can't wait to see what the future has in store for us.

I love you Darren Wilstead! (more than the very most!)
