Double Digits

Yep kids, it's been 10 years since the Valentis and Ryniaks tied the proverbial knot. Hard to believe, I know. Murphy's law has been in full effect for this most joyous occasion. Little miss Chloe got up at quarter to seven, took her diaper off and peed on the hallway carpet. Ben and his buddies were playing root beer bottle baseball in the backyard and smashed Chloe's bubble sword to a million bits. Chris spent all morning digging dirt listening to his ipod. At lunchtime we broke for subs and the baby got food poisoning as well as the cat. So, I'm sitting at home with a puking baby and cat while my boys are in Akron at a farewell barbecue for our very good friend, who will be leaving for Africa for two years. Did I mention just last week Miss Chloe took a flying leap off the end of the couch and ended up with a concussion? Never a dull moment in our house, that's for sure! Still, I'm glad this chaos is my life and I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. Thank you to my wonderful husband and best friend, Chris, for the best years of my life.
