Today I hung up my aerial silks and Mark got to see me do my best on silks. He said that I was awesome even though he had no idea what I was trying to do. I just laughed. Then he grinned. I knew that grin. I ran as fast as I could but as always he caught me. After he was done tickling me he flipped me to where I was on his shoulders and ran into the house and flipped me over. I stuck the landing perfectly.

"I knew it!"

"What?" I asked knowing exactly what he was going to say.

"We have a Gymnast! I'm glad one of you is because...Oh you'll find out."

"Come on!"

"Nope!" He said and patted me on the head. Anyway he knows this but tomorrow is my birthday so Haylee is in a hurry to get me to go to bed so I'm sitting in my room and I can hear Haylee giggling. I'm 100% positive one of them went into the attic but thats none of my business.

I got some awesome presents like a balance beam, uneven bars, a mat and a unitard. The moment I opened it I had the bars assembled in a second and was already doing flips. I only stopped to stretch so that I didn't hurt myself. I taught Haylee some gymnastics. Every so often I have nightmares. When I have nightmares, before I even start to scream Haylee is awake and by my side. When I do start to scream Mark is there. I hate the nightmares. Today while Mark was at the store I texted him,

Me: Someone is at the door

Mark: Don't answer it don't even go to the door

Me: I'm upstairs and I am looking out the window

Mark: Can you tell who it is?

Mark: Anne?

Mark: Annabella?

Mark: Annie!

Me: What?

Mark: God you scared me

Me: How?

Mark: Anne why did you not answer me?

Me: You said Annie and I answered

Mark: God I swear Anne

Me: WHAT!?

Mark: I'm on my way back

Me: Ok

A few minutes later he texted me again,

Mark: I thought you were hurt..

Mark: I love you, Anne

Me: :)

Me: I love you too, Mark

Wow just writing that is making sparks fly... no literally we made a campfire in the yard and sparks are flying. When he got home I just walked into his arms.

"I really do love you...Annie."

"And I love you too Mark."

"You have no idea how scared I was to send that text."

I giggled, "No really! I mean what if you didn't say it back?"

"Mark chill. You sent the text and I'm still here right?"

"Right."

"Now be quiet Haylee is asleep."December 4, 3016

We went to the park because Haylee said she needed to show me something. When we got there she told me to record and then ran off to the silks.
