THIS POST IS DEDICATED TO THE MAN I LOVE....

Look, I know he doesn't read this blog. Hell, he doesn't even know that I have a blog. This is my very own secret. I guess we all need to keep a little something that is just ours. Today is our 15th wedding anniversary! Yep, that's right the hubby has put up with all my quirks for longer than that. He is da'MAN!

He is the kindest most gentle soul I have ever known. I wish each one of you could meet the man, the legend (heehee). He is my opposite and my equal he is a good balance for me. He's beautiful.

We laugh all the time and he really makes me believe that I am worth it.

I almost lost him on April 4th, 2005. He was racing his motorcycle on a private track.

There were a few amateurs there and unfortunately one of them got right in front of him going in to the first turn. He avoided hitting the guy but his motorcycle hit the pea stones and took the wheels right out from under him. I was not at the race. I was home with the children, 4 hours from him. I got the phone call everyone dreads. He never got back up. He was being airlifted to the trauma unit. My heart sank. I am crying as I am typing this... No one could tell me anything. I called the hospital. They wouldn't tell me anything. I got in my car and headed south on I-95. Unfortunately there were wildfires blowing across the highway and they stopped traffic, so there I sat. We were at a standstill. I couldn't think straight. I called my brother who lives in Jacksonville (who happens to be married to my hubby's sister). The were just about to walk out the door. They were less than 15 minutes from the hospital. They called me when they got there to let me know that he was still alive but that was all they knew.

I have never felt so alone in my whole life.

A normal trip there would take 2 hours. It took me almost 6. Lucky for me he has recovered and the only thing he has now is residual headaches.

He is still my rock. He is still in one piece and I thank God everyday that we wake up next to each other. I know most of you come here for a good laugh or to read about another misadventure of one of the kids. Very rarely to I ever talk about the hubby. He is one awesome person. I am so blessed to be able to say that I married the man of my dreams.

Happy Anniversary Baby, I love you more than you will ever know!
