Bed Rest: Day 72 (Our 7th Wedding Anniversary)

Yesterday, Eli and I celebrated our 7th wedding anniversary. It feels like 7 years is both too short and too long for all the changes in our lives. But we both agree that life is even better than when we were sealed in the Columbus, Ohio temple. We both agree that the blessings and challenges the Lord has given us over these 7 years are something we could have only done TOGETHER. I can't imagine having someone else by my side. Eli is the most wonderful husband and father. His love for our family and for me is abundant. And he shows it. I am grateful that he is a faithful priesthood holder and for how much he loves our Savior.

To celebrate, we ordered take out from Bravo. I had forgotten just how delicious their house salad is. Mmmm. We both had their Pasta Bravo and of course, some yummy bread. It was fantastic, and for the first time since being in the hospital, I ate nearly the entire meal simply because it was so tasty. We watched a movie, and then watched Master Chef. Because Gordon Ramsey is just as much a part of our relationship as we are. :) The nurses and Dr. M made a special effort to make our evening enjoyable. They are so sweet. It was a wonderful anniversary celebration. We probably won't have another like it.

Happy Anniversary My Love!
