{three}

*I wrote this 2.9.14 and forgot to post it.*

Time moves unbelievably fast. Today Andrew and I have been dating for {three} years, and have been married for {three} months. I thought that as I reflected today about this journey I have begun called marriage...I would share a few things that I have learned [am learning] along the way.

1. The excitement of a wedding fades quickly, and at that point real life begins.
2. Every person has their quirks. Sometimes we adapt them. Sometimes....not so much.
3. Andrew and I use an unusual amount of spoons.
4. My mom was right....laundry NEVER ends.
5. Sometimes all a person needs is a little space.
6. No place feels safer, than in my husband's arms.
7. It is okay to laugh at yourself. [and each other]
8. Having a God focused marriage is hard, and has to be intentional. Being newly weds, we tend to want to focus on each other most.
9. Sharing a meal together is important. Sharing a meal that we cooked together, even more important.
10. I get to have a sleep over with my best friends every night.
