blessings beyond measure

the blessing of marriage is putting some perspective on life before Sept 16. life isn't about me. that i know. but what i have learned is that life is about an us, a feeling of unity. though rob was always there i was constantly missing the unified feeling. now, every day i know i will walk in a house where someone loves me, unconditionally. there is a palpable peace in my life now. what a blessing my husband is.

my resolution is to let him know how perfect he is every day. 

"every good and perfect gift is from above" - James 1:17

happy new year everyone. count your blessings every day.

3 months and counting

three things about the first three months:
1. marriage is a lot of fun and a blessing most days but it can be really challenging too. the thing to remember is that we are on the same team. and sometimes "i'm sorry, i love you" is the only answer.
2. living with the person you love is awesome. it has been approximately 91 days since rob has had to drive me home or i have had to leave him at the end of the night. he loves this and so do i, time is so precious and we get to spend so much together. 
3. jack has been our best decision yet. we are learning to take the responsibility together and split the duties. rob is such a wonderful caretaker, it makes me love him more and more daily.

we also just used my wedding present from rob, tickets to Wicked! it was amazing and we will never forget it!
