Falling More In Love Everyday

I am absolutely in love with my husband! I knew we would continue to fall in love everyday, but its truly incredible and beyond my comprehension some days. Maybe its the wedding I just went to or maybe it was just being away from him for a few days, but this weekend just made me realize how much more I've fallen for him! Some of you may think this post is sappy and ridiculous...but I don't care! I'm tired of worrying about being "that girl" who wears her heart on her sleeve...or worried about "disgusting" other people....or that I should be stronger and more independant. Well, that is just not what God intended! God intended for my husband and I to be ONE! God intended for us to love each other and be a picture of Christ and the Church! I don't want to be a cynic like so much of the world today! I want to love my husband out loud!!!! I didn't wait 31 years for God's perfect timing to be quiet about it!!! So today, I'm letting loose my giddy-ness!!! I'm going to be "a girl" (which I am, thank you very much)!!! And I'm going to be sappy because I am absolutely, positively in mad, deep love with my husband!!!!! :) He's amazing and perfect for me!!!!! I was watching TV last night and a girl was talking about the great feeling you get before your first date! Well, some of us get too anxious and I think we all worry about what we're going to wear...so, part of it can be pretty stressful, but its a good stressful! Our first REAL date was 3 days after we met. Ken was in town to buy a house since he was going to be starting a new job here. Our date was pretty unconventional b/c after we went to lunch, we went to look at the house and then to the bank to settle the loan! It was still fun b/c I was just excited to spend more time with him. But, I have to say that my favorite part was the 2 days after we met, when we weren't in the same town...sounds weird, but we would stay up LATE in the night talking on the phone! I love love love the "getting to know each other" time! It was so fun!!! The stomach flips, the butterflies, the "zha zha zhu", and the giddy-ness! Its wonderful!!! There's no stress, no talking of finances (well, besides the mortgage loan), no worries about the future...its just the two of you getting to know the other one.
The wedding I went to yesterday was beautiful! While I was watching the bride and groom, I realized how much I've forgotten about our day. I'm so thankful for pictures to capture the beauty of it all...but I've forgotten the moment we were looking into each others' eyes and saying our vows (I can't wait to see the video!!!). My friend's wedding did bring back memories of our first seeing each other on that day and all the emotion of how we were after we walked out of the ceremony and were alone for 10 minutes! It was so special and wonderful!!! I loved being reminded of those moments and those feelings! I feel like our wedding was so long ago b/c we just fit! I feel like I've known him my whole life! I know he isn't perfect and I know that I turn to God to be my All-Sufficient One (so please don't think I'm placing my husband where he's not supposed to be). But here on this earth, he's my support system. He's my best friend. He's my comforter. He's my protector. He's everything that I worried I wouldn't find. I never thought someone could be as great to me as my daddy, but God did a great job! :) My daddy will always be my daddy...and thankfully Ken knows he can't take that place, but God has blessed me with a man that is mine! A man that will will be mine, until "death do us part."
