Anniversary!

Happy anniversary to the man I chose to spend my life with. We've been through multiple funerals, family losses, moves, visa hurdles, family strife, surgery, over 3 years of fertility treatments, buying a house, the loss of our first, and the glorious though scary and difficult production of our second. Now I couldn't imagine parenting with anyone else. Love you.

For our anniversary, we decided to go to the Cheesecake Factory. It brought back some memories from another time there. We met some wonderful friends there, but this time was decidedly more special. I have to say I'm quite impressed with them. I've always loved their food, but they offered us a complimentary banana and bread plate for E.
The staff was also exceedingly helpful about all things baby. Thank you Cheesecake Factory! We had a beautiful day all around. Now if the heat would just start to abate. I'm not digging the "record highs." Thanks.
