Hmmmm, what things make me stay? My wife's laughter, number one on the list. It's infectuous (and quite often at my own expense). Seeing my wife smile/being happy. Seeing my children growing up with a loving family, something neither my wife or I had growing up. Accomplishing major goals together: graduate school, new vehicles, new home, children. Getting through the tough times make me stay - struggles with finances, jobs, being together helps get us through the tough times. The love we have for each other. Celebrating our love (no, NOT the same thing as making love (though that's nice too)). I could go on and on and on, but these are the top things on the list...and, we're coming up on 9 years this December!
