Ya'll I have been married 10 years and still I'm learning everyday!
How to communicate better. How to be kinder. How to navigate parenthood as one. The list goes on and on.
My favorite part about marriage is knowing every night will be spent in the safety of your home with someone who would give their life to protect you. Seriously I've never felt safer than at the end of the day when I'm locked in tight with my hubby. Knowing that everyday will end the same, our son safely tucked in bed across the hall from two people that love him unconditional. The walls of our home hold so much love, and laughter, and blissfulness.
More than marriage its about this person who completes me. Its about respect and appreciation. Its about love and contentment. Its about complete trust and brutal honesty. Its messy. Its beautiful.
(Im not talking about anything dirty) I'm talking about the moment you take off the stress of the day and your makeup, your hairs a oily mess cause you were too rushed to get the kids to the bus to wash it that morning and he still thinks your the most beautiful woman in the world. Im talking about falling asleep knowing your beside the one who asked you to be his forever and stands by that decision 10 years later. Im talking about spending most hours in the day apart and yet ending everyday together and still feeling closer than ever. Im talking about being so close that you know what the other persons thinking. Knowing that the person will always be on your side, even when your wrong. Knowing that no matter what someone is in your corner. Knowing that your never alone and your never unloved.
Its sweet text and yet being secure in the fact that you haven't spoke to them all day. Its being able to vent with no judgement and not having to worry about your secrets being exposed. Its endless inside jokes and laughter. Its knowing that you've being holding hands for over a decade and yet still wanting to. Its talking about everything and yet being able to come home after a hard day and being able to say I dont wanna talk about it.
And since we married so young, its growing up together. Its looking back and seeing how much you've both changed. Its laughing about things you argued about in the beginning. Its watching your wedding video and laughing to the point of tears at that song you played and the color of those dresses. Its knowing that hard times will come and being so convinced that everything will be just fine, cause it always has been. Its remembering the days you ate frozen pizzas every night cause they were cheap and its literally all your could afford. Its watching your child play and knowing that he is everything and yet the key to your heart still belongs to his daddy. Its trading in the going out nights for sweatpants and pj mask with the littles. Its looking back and realizing you thought you could never love them more, but realizing you do. Its not all rainbows and butterflies. Its hard, very hard. Its alot of stormy and cloudy days, but you know at the end of the day it will be the two of you dancing in the rain together, laughing at how drenched you both are. Its being so confident in the choice you made to live your life with this person. Its choosing them over and over everyday with no regrets. Its beautiful and hard and messy and yet nothing has ever felt so right. Its as natural as breathing and you look back at so many moments that took your breath away. Its remembering the difficult moments and realizing they come no where close to all the happiness you have just from being with this person.
People today will try to convince you that marriage isnt beautiful. They will try to persuade you to believe that it cant last. That it is not realistic. That no one can be with one person for the rest of their lives. But they dont know me and you. They dont see what we see. They dont know what we know. Cause if they could only see what we see they would believe just like we do.
