warning: mushy lovey dovey post.
I love my husband.
I'm afraid statements like that have really lost the value of what they are supposed to mean. I'm afraid saying "i love ___" can mean, I like that thing or person a lot, that thing or person is cool, that thing or person is attractive, and so on and so forth. But i really LOVE my husband. In saying that, yes, i like him, i think he is cool, and attractive :) But, I also admire him, am bettered because of him, grow closer to God with his help, am encouraged because of him, and so on and so forth :)
It's crazy to think we are where we are today. Married for almost 3 years (very happily i might add) with a 2 year old and a baby on the way. And to think back to where we used to be. Two kids that knew each other through church and other people. Our paths crossed now and again, and man! How we had no clue what was in store for us. But moving on from that...because this isn't a blog about how we ended up together...although that would be a good one...and a LONG ONE!
Tonight Mark & I sat and chatted about some things in our past. More specifically, relationships in our past. It's not that we don't already know this information about each other..because we do, but sometimes sitting down and reviewing where we were and what we were doing in life before we were lead to each other is a huge blessing. Just talking to him tonight makes me realize how loved I am. Just the fact that we are together, not by chance, but on PURPOSE and for a REASON really does make my life worth living.
I am so thankful to the Lord for a husband who supports me, encourages me, loves me, is an awesome father, a protector, a leader, and so so so so so much more!
I don't feel like my brain is adequately producing the words that I WANT to write to say how blessed i'm feeling tonight.
