time slips. it moves, ebbing and flowing like a wave against the shore. like the fall and rise of the chest, breathing in and out, moving up and down. time seems to moving quickly, too quickly, and the remote is hidden somewhere beneath the couch so i can't even push pause.
deep breathe. in and out.
we've almost been married three months. august is halfway gone. school starts in a few weeks. i need a pause.
luckily it is friday and my dear husband has planned a little get away weekend for us. i am beyond excited! all i know is we are going somewhere by the ocean, somewhere with cool air.
oh marriage. oh life. how difficultly wonderful and sweet you are!
yesterday we were at bible study and someone asked us how married life has been. we both looked at each other and responded at the same time "it's hard".
it is.
when you are engaged everyone tells you their romantic stories, how lovey-dovey everything is in the beginning. then once you are married everyone consoles you, sharing their hard stories from their beginning. marriage is a lot harder than i thought it was going to be... but at the same time it is beyond amazing. i never knew i could love someone so deeply, so fiercely. love the fills you to the brim at the very sight of that person. happiness. contentment.
oh how i love him, my californian husband.
smile.
very nice! here it is monday, i hope you had a great weekend away!!!!! love ya.
