I meant to post this a while ago, but didn't remember to.....
In celebration of 8years for Andrew and I... these are my thoughts...
Almost a decade and two children later I can truly say I'm learning that marriage is a commitment of super glue proportions. And it’s the commitment that sticks even when the feelings ebb and flow. That’s the beauty and courage of marriage.
Penny-pinching so you can move across the country with each other and still hopefully manage to make a life together all the while still attending long-distance graduations, birthdays, and weddings?
Your people will be my people.
Strange accents, foods, pizza toppings, and television preferences?
Your people will be my people.
Death, miscarriage, pain and heartache.
Your people will be my people.
Finding out your crazy wife wants to be a professional photographer and supporting her without wavering...
Your people will be my people.
Because, after all, marriage is the ultimate parable, isn’t it? It’s the living picture of a God who looked at us in all our silly, selfish ways and then loved on us regardless, so that He could make Us. His. People.
Amazing, crazy love.
And all we have to say is, “I do.”
So to this new chapter with my handsome hubby I continue to pull out the super glue... and continue to say I do.
I love you babe.
Love that. Thanks for keeping the super glue handy, and I love that YOU are my people (or person). Thanks for 8 years, and even now, new adventures!
ReplyDeleteLove you!
