8 is GREAT!

Jesus speaking-It's hard to say that we have been married for 8 years and 11 years together as a couple. Sometimes it feels like we have been together for a long time, but others like we are still so young in this relationship. Overall our relationship has been filled with many memorable moments that I never thought I would experience. We have grown so much with each other in so many ways. I have been able to view things in life differently by opening my mind to each other's thoughts.We have and will always have tough times, but we will also always experience laughter, our ability to rely on each other. I look forward to all the challenges we continue to face and overcome. Our marriage has now grown in a different way with the addition of our daughter. Seeing Monica as a mother now has brought out different, stronger love for her I never knew I had. Our past 8 years will always be remembered, because those years with each other made us the strong parents we are now. I don't know how the next years will be, but I know they will continue to get even better than where we already are, as we continue to grow as a family.

Moni speaking- Eight years is how many years we have been married! WOW..and OMG! Over the past year we have learned so much about each other that we thought we already knew, and my love for Jesus couldn't be any stronger. He has truly been the most caring, loving, patient, and understanding husband and I have so much respect for him. I see him in a different light than I have over the past years. Remembering him as the young man I met 11 years ago and the young man I married, I realize how much we have grown as individuals and as a couple. Like any marriage, especially a young couple like ourselves, we had our challenging times, but God carried us and pulled us together. Jesus has taught me so much about myself and keeps me centered. He still makes me laugh, he still writes me romantic poems, he still makes my heart race when he does or says something so simple that means the world to me. Most of all I not only know he loves me, but I feel it deep in my blood. Seeing him as a father makes me so happy. He is such a natural father and Bella lights up when she hears and see's him. I couldn't be any happier or more loved than I am today. I thank God each day for the blessing in him. I am so excited for our life together as parents, but for now enjoy each moment with him and Bella. Thanks to Grandpa Sergio, Grandma Wendy and Tio's Noah and Nic for babysitting all day while we enjoyed lunch, a couples massage, dinner and dancing for our anniversary. We had some much needed quality time while Bella got spoiled!
