Look... I had long hair once. That's me, June 30, 2004. Any guess what I was doing that day?This week's Bad Gratitude Monday is all about Mr. Wright, as we prepare to celebrate our five year anniversary.
Let me tell you, readers: Mr. Wright's list of talents is extensive, and I am grateful for each one of those talents. He is, in no particular order:
- gorgeous
- a wonderful cook (he even caters to my vegan diet!)
- a rock-solid political strategist
- my Sanity Management Director
- a rockin' drummer
- a top-notch snuggler
- the only person on the face of the planet who FULLY "gets" my sense of humor
- a compassionate sounding board
- my equal when it comes to useless trivia (a huge feat, folks)
- the guy who tirelessly plays the "random lines from Eighties movies" game with me
- the sweetheart who picks the non-vegan Jelly Belly jelly beans out before giving me a handful
- a bigger deal than Bob on the Enzyte commercials, if you know what I'm saying...
- the only guy who has ever beat me at Scrabble
- the dorkishly sweet man who carries pictures of my boobs around on his computer when he's away on business
- my favorite travel companion
- a phenom on the dance floor
- the sacrificial prince who makes coffee before waking me up and drives 30 miles in the middle of the night to buy me an emergency Diet Coke
- the attentive companion who makes sure I eat when I'm manically working on a project
- a guy that even my girlfriends like to have around on Girls' Night because he's so darned cool
- the wonderful father of our seven children
- my biggest fan and cheerleader (or is that "cheer king?")
- a saint for putting up with me
His favorite of our wedding photos:
My favorite:
That was back when we only had five kids, after all...
A friend recently asked me if I was a "trophy wife" when we wed, since I'm a newer, sleeker version than the original. "Maybe," I answered. "And I'm totally okay with that!"

Happy Anniversary!!
I am greateful for my hubby, my children, my health, my friends who often hold me up and for the possible chance to maybe meet my 19 y/o sister after 41 years of being an only child.
