I want to see the photographs of 10 years down the road.
Of smiles, mud, and chaos. Where 3 kids are my load.
My front porch swing, loaded full, of toothy-grinned bare-feet.
And my prince charming's index finger blocking half the scene.
Blurry pictures of that day, smushed frosting in our hair.
The day we swore that for each other: we'd always be there.
Marshmallows, s'mores, the summer sun, evening barbecue.
Everlasting days of fun: but the days always too few.
