The Real Truth About Marriage

Have you ever really stopped to think about how much your life changes once you say those two words that mean forever and always? Has it ever occurred to you that marriage might not be quite as romantic as you'd always hoped?

It's crazy to think that my husband and I have been together for 11 years. Yep, no doubt. I remember the day we met like it was yesterday. I remember getting engaged, moving in together, saying “I do,” and of course welcoming the little guy into our lives. Just thinking about everything we've been through together brings tears to my eyes.

Perfect or not. Romantic or romanticized. The truth about marriage is that it's amazing and I definitely wouldn't trade it for anything.
