7.

There seems to be something significant about seven years of marriage. Maybe it seems solidly settled in. Maybe it's the baby and all. Or maybe it's just that we went out to dinner alone for the first time in three and a half months.

This year I have begun to better appreciate the ways Jason has influenced who I am at 33. The introduction to ethnic food alone has made me a better person! We were laughing over lunch today with my aunt and uncle about how I was hesitant to date Jason because we had nothing in common--when we combined CDs after we got married, we had ONE duplicate! It made me marvel at how much we have in common today. Being married to him is pretty awesome.
