This coming May, we will be married 22 years.
To be honest marriage is nothing like I imagined but yet it's w.o.n.d.e.r.f.u.l and so much better.
I thought marriage would be:
-Roses delivered weekly. Instead I get them at surprise moments which is so much more romantic.
-Kisses, hugs, make out sessions 24/7
-Lingerie and sex every day and night like the newlywed stage
-No arguing
- spending all your free time together
The fairytale wedding is over and the realities of married life are sinking in. Are you missing the "happily ever after"?
Instead Marriage is
- a text in the day to check in
- walking to the Operating room door, saying a prayer over me and the drs
- learning to braid my hair while I was recovering from lung surgery
- driving me to and from apts, interviews, random shopping trips
- random teading to make me giggle
- acting silly together
- road trips, holding hands even at 22 years in.
- waking me every morning so I don't over sleep
- arguing ( heated discussions) but always making up
- praying together
- cleaning the floors for me every week before small group.
- grocery shopping because I didn't want to go after a long day at work
- vacations together and having a wonderful time.
- booking hotel rooms when my dr tells me I need to disconnect from the world.
- putting up with grumpy me
- first person I kiss in the morning
- last kiss at night
- my best friend
- my advice giver
I feel like the most blessed person in the world to be married to my love ♥️
