On Monday, May 28, 2012, Ryan and I will celebrate our seven year anniversary. How could we have known, seven years ago, how dynamic our lives would become... ...how difficult it would be to raise my boys from afar, and watch them becoming men... ...how many cameras I would "NEED"... ...how much joy she would bring... ...how AWESOME Dyess would be... ...how stubborn she would be... ...how joy could turn to fear and back to joy within a week... ...how emotional the roller coaster of deployments would be... ...that we would actually keep our promise to return to Hawaii for our 5th... ...that we'd end up in Little Rock... (okay, we probably guessed that!) ...that your ego could grow even more :-D... ...that we would be more in love today than we were then. I’m looking forward to the next segment of the journey. Happy Anniversary, Ryan! Love, Becky
