August 16

A year ago today, I woke up early in Nashville, Tennessee. Bart and I spent the day driving a Budget truck with our car behind it towards Pittsburgh, the last stop before we arrived in Boston.

During the drive that day, we listened to The Hunger Games, discussed some of the logistics of moving in, and daydreamed about what life in Boston would be like.

It was also our fourth wedding anniversary.

Today is our fifth wedding anniversary. We’re back in Texas, and our family looks a little different now.

I think it looks even better.
