Today is our 9th wedding anniversary. I told Peter that yesterday and he couldn't remember the number. He kept asking about our 5th or our 1th (as in one-th) anniversary.
When I would say, "No, 9th. Daddy and I have been married for 9 years," he would ask,
"Why?"
Ummm... because that's how long we've been married. I have trouble answering those questions.
One thing that sets this anniversary apart from any of our others is that we recently reached a new milestone. We have now been married with children longer than we were married without children. Bryan and I were married for close to four and a half years before Peter was born, which is almost an eternity in Utah.
Happy 9th Anniversary Bryan!
Maybe next year we'll have enough energy to actually celebrate...

Happy Anniversary.
Happy anniversary!
I never could answer those kinds of "why" questions, either. "Um, because it just is."
Congrats! Maybe you can do something extra cool for your tenth next year. :)
Congratulations! Wait until you have been married for more years than you were single. When we reached that milestone it seemed a little surreal.
That is exciting. We are hitting 9 years also in November. We were married for 4 and a half years before we had kids and I actually look back on that time now with a lot of fondness. Not that I hate my kids, I don't, but when I am really tired, it's fun to reminisce about how calm our life used to be.
