So many people say they didn't realize how hard marriage would be until after they were married...how they went into it all blissful and unknowing and found themselves with a rude awakening. I've had the opposite experience. Even though I was blissfully happy when we got married (and still am), I didn't let it blind me, I knew Dave was the man created just for me.
Growing up with divorced parents and surrounded by marriages that were falling apart, I assumed marriage would be difficult. And while every couple has their moments (no one is perfect) marriage has been surprisingly easy for Dave and I...of course you have to always put the other person first and that takes work, but we enjoy working at it.
Husband...loving you is as easy as breathing...
By the way this pic was taken with the John S. lens and Blanko film in Hipstamatic...no further editing...amazing huh? It's my new phone backround :)

I wish marriage was easy! I have divorced parents as well; my father (now deceased) was married three or four times after that. I knew marriage wasn't easy, but the 1st time (since I'm also divorced) I still went in thinking it would be easy for me because I wasn't them. Oh the lessons we learn.
ReplyDeleteI am a firm believer in Marriage..for other people :D Being a divorced mother of 3, I find things are easier handled by the person who takes care of me best...ME! :D Hope you two are having a wonderful week!

Thank you dear, you know I feel the same way...
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful post! I was blinded by the fact that my parents were still married and I thought it was perfect. So I didn't think it would be hard. HELLOOOO! God has been faithful and I love my hubby even more now. And finally figured out that even though my parents have been married 44 years, nothings perfect. Beautiful picture!
ReplyDeleteHey Hey from your newest follower! I love your blog and this post was great! Coming from a broken home, I could really relate to where you were coming from. I am married almost two years in December. Of course it is not perfect but it was pretty easy as you described. I married my best friend and I think that helps with the easy part. Looking forward to reading more from you!
ReplyDeleteSo sweet. I was talking to a friend of mine over the weekend about marriage (or more specifically whether it really changes anything). She told me to go ask her husband, because he could explain it better than she could. When I did he told me that it wasn't that marriage changed their relationship so much as it made everything in his life better.

So sweet :)
ReplyDeleteLove this post. My husband and I both came into this marriage knowing that we didn't want divorce to ever enter our vocabularies, so our kids wouldn't go through what we did (parents divorcing). Like you, we are amazed at how easy these first few months have been, although we know we have many years and trials ahead of us. :)
