In honor of our first wedding anniversary, I thought I’d tell you what I’ve learned.  And I love lists, so here’s a list…

Things I Wish I Had Known When I Said “I Do”

  1. It takes more than a few nights to get used to sharing a bed with someone.
  2. Planning meals and grocery shopping can become an ordeal.
  3. It may take a while for his family to become my family.
  4. It may take a while for my family to become his family.
  5. I seriously married his whole family.
  6. All men are gross.  Especially in the bathroom.
  7. From “I do” on, I’m no longer making decisions for just myself.
  8. I’m responsible for two people instead of just me.
  9. It’s impossible to please everyone.
  10. Just because he didn’t hug me as soon as he walked in the door doesn’t mean he quit loving me.
  11. He doesn’t enjoy shopping.  That’s ok.
  12. If my only complaint about my husband is that he doesn’t wash dishes, them I’m doing pretty good!
  13. You’ve got to have dreams and you’ve got to talk about them!
  14. A one night getaway for the two of us is the best thing in the world!
  15. Marrying him is the best thing that has ever happened to me!
