I have been married this amount of time. Almost 7 months! I still can't believe that I am married. Stephen and I will joke around because we stop in the middle of anything sometimes to say "Guess what? We're married." It's quite funny. Have you have had one of those moments that your just like, "Woah."? When I say it, I don't mean it in a bad way. It is an amazing experience!So with this being said, I have had quite a few people ask me: "So how's married life?" Let me just go ahead and answer this question:
I love, Love, LOVE married life! Since the moment I said "When I say I love you..." I haven't regretted one milisecond of it. Has it been challenging? Yes. Is it lots of work? Yes. Is it worth it? Heck yes! Stephen and I have had our fights (some worse than others) and we have also had some amazing moments together. It takes quite a bit of communication in a marriage to make it work. And especially God and His Holy Spirit guiding us. Let me just tell you there is nothing more sexy than seeing your husband or wife worshipping and praying to God! It makes me love him even more because he takes the time to spend that time with God.
No matter if you have been married 7 months or 70 years, you will ALWAYS learn something new from and about your spouse. For example, we feel that the Lord is wanting us to buy a house now and when we went to go see the one on Double Tree Road which was over 2300 sq. ft., that made him nervous about having that much space. I on the other hand was excited with all the posilibilities it had and all the different things I can do to design/decorate it!
I have also learned that there will be misunderstandings. This correlates with the paragraph above too because men and women do not think the same way. There will be times that Stephen will send me an e-mail or a text about something and I totally interpreted it a different way and vice versa.
Another thing I have learned is that no matter what miscommunications, "discussions," etc we have had, we know we love each other. I know that if we have a disagreement that neither one of us are going to leave or walk out. We are each others constants. :)
So in closing, I love being married to Stephen. He is my heart's desire and my best friend. I love making him laugh and seeing the sparkle in his eyes when he talks about his dreams, goals, and aspirations. And even when he talks about banking. :)
Blessings,
Abby
