THOUGHTS ON MARRIAGE, MOTHERHOOD AND GRAND-PARENTING

Love My Man!!

Yesterday we celebrated Jeff's Birthday.  Oh how I love that man!!!!  What an incredible feeling it is to know that you are married to your soul mate and best friend.  We are so different yet our spirits seem to speak to each other and be eternally and completely connected.  In worldly ways we couldn't be more opposite.  We enjoy totally different activities, food and lifestyles.  It is a joke between us that if I really love some food or drink I can know that Jeff will hate it.  Yet there is no person on earth that I enjoy being with more.  We can sit together, visit and be perfectly content.  As we work hard to overcome differences, to learn about and enjoy each others passions, and strive to understand one another and compromise on our desires and dreams we are becoming ONE.
That is what marriage is all about---becoming ONE.  It's work, sometimes hard work, and it takes patience, lots of patience.  There are ups and downs and that is okay because it is a process of growing, growing together.  Becoming ONE takes time but oh how enjoyable is the journey!!

This is a terrible pic of me and the shadows are horrible, but Jeff is smiling which is rare in pictures.  
While looking for cute pictures of us together for this post I realized we need to do much better about getting some with both of us in it.  New Goal.
