I have been thinking about this for some time. Yes, when I
had my little pirates I was happy, ecstatic even. (Well, after the pain
medication kicked in… that sounded really bad. I had two c sections and once
the pain hit WOWZA. It was over whelming.) I love my kiddos more than life its
self. But the day I actually had them, not my happiest. I know I will offend some
moms out there and I am okay with that. The day I got married is my happiest
day.
For one it’s the day that started the rest of my life. If I didn't say yes when I was asked to be Mrs. and if I didn’t go through with the
wedding (never had second thoughts) I wouldn’t have MY two pirates. My wedding
though actually a very scary day, with the hurricane season, and rain storms
all week and the day before going on into the early morning, was very peaceful;
the whole planning actually. It was a destination wedding of sorts and should have been difficult to plan. I was
able to plan everything with one trip and a final trip about two months before
the wedding to finalize everything. (I mean I made a few extra trips just
because it was happening at a beach) The day of I was able to spend time with
some of my favorite family members (who traveled 18 hours with 5 kids) and have
breakfast with one of my bridesmaids who I didn’t get to spend that much time
with. (She also met her future husband, a groomsman!) The day its self was
perfect, it wasn’t raining and everything just flowed.
It wasn’t until after the “I do’s” that the storm of all
storms hit. We literally just started the reception when the sky’s opened up
and let loose. I didn’t notice, until my new Aunt walked over to me said. “Congratulations,
you look beautiful, and look outside.” I love thunder storms and my grandma for
some reason (passed away before I was out of High school) told me that if it
rains on your wedding day then God is happy that you got married. To be
truthful the power could have cut off and there be storm damage and I would
still have been happy. Nothing could have changed my mood that day.
One more reason my kiddos are a part of The
Hubs. Lime has their family trait, annoy the one you love the most and though
he doesn’t know a stranger like his mommy, he is quiet and likes to see how
things work like daddy, he is thoughtful and he enjoys having days at home. He
also loves to have his “man” time with daddy. While Baby girl, who already at six
months is a lot like her daddy. She is quiet and reserved around new people,
she knows what she wants and wants it then, as much as she can she feels out
the situation and reacts accordingly. Not to mention that she has the most amazing blue
eyes just like her daddy.
If I hadn’t married The Hubs, I wouldn’t have had our children. I have my two pirates
because of the man that I vowed to spend the rest of my life with. He is the
reason that those two pirates that are sleeping like little angels up stairs
are here. How could the day that I said “I do” not be the happiest? It’s the day
that brought them to me, even if it was years and years away?
