5 Years Later

"Come on babe you can do it!"

"yeah momma we believe in you"

"Thanks, guys just give me a moment," I say and step forward

it's our 5th wedding anniversary and for Jonah, I'm walking today, not just any walking but walking around a zoo

yes it seems like a lot but Blake really wanted to go and see the animals so I agreed

after I had Blake, everything I learned about walking went away. I tried to get back to standing up but I couldn't.

I had to relearn everything and luckily 2 years ago I got better. I'm not perfect at walking, in fact, I'm very slow but I can do it

I eventually catch up to them and Blake claps

"see mommy you can do it"

"thank you, baby. what animal do you want to see first"

"umm lion"

"and what sound do lions make"

"ROAR"

"he's so cute," I say towards Jonah

"I know. we make cute babies"

"We must have more" I smirk

"maybe later for an anniversary gift"

"don't get me excited"

we finally get home from the Zoo and I am exhausted

yes, it was fun but all that walking was too much. as soon as we get back I fall right on the couch

"tired?" Jonah asks me walking in

"yes very"

"do you want to nap?"

"yes please"

"Okay I'll go put Blake in his bed for his nap and then I'll come down here with you"

he goes upstairs and after a few minutes comes back down and lays with me

"How was your day today," he asks putting his arms around me

"it was fun. my legs hurt well what I can feel. and I'm very tired"

"I see. you know watching you walk made me happy. from 6 years ago, you've gotten so far and I love you"

"I love you more" I kiss him and he puts his hand on my cheek

"later tonight, Blake's going to my moms' house so we can celebrate"

"How will we celebrate" I smirk

"well I have a gift or two for you, we have reservations at a restaurant, and maybe we'll just have to make another Blake"

"I like that plan, especially the last part"

"I'm sure you do. you know what I like?"

"what"

"Being married to you. I love it"

"aw, you're so cute. I also love being married to you. how much longer do you want to be with me?"

"forever. life with you is amazing. I love how we've been able to adjust to what happened. and now you can walk fully yeah it's tiring but still you can do it. and we have blake and we're gonna have more and it's just so amazing"

"it took a while to get here"

"I know but I'm glad we are here now. I love you Cam"

"I love you more"
