as of tomorrow i will have been married two months. wow.
i just spent 12 days (too many) away from my husband. i kept thinking to myself 'i got married so i didn't have to do this!' but sometimes situations in life don't leave as many options as we might wish for..
he picked my up from the dallas love (how appropriate, *grin*) airport yesterday afternoon and it was rapturously wonderful! its funny how when someone is gone, you miss the strangest things..like the way their face smells or the way light falls on their face or even the way they walk. i missed all of that and so much more when we were apart.
what a blessed woman i am. i am really coming to understand what a precious gift this man is in my life. we went to starbucks this morning and read before heading to the studio. we talked about faith and where we are and he confided in me some of things he had being seeing the people around him...the way they treat their wives and they way they talk and i just couldn't help but think i am so glad to be this man's wife. especially in a world when so much gets tolerated that should never b coddled...so GLAD.
the simplicity and honesty of shawn's heart spurs me on. he has a way of looking at faith and Jesus that would never occur to me...just getting glimpses of the what's in him...it stops me dead in my tracks.
okay before anyone pukes, i will stop. just wanted to 'publically' declare my deep respect for the man in my life.

Kate, You and Shawn are a example of what God wanted marriage to be all about. You are truly blessed.
Keep writing. I never tire of "happy" love stories.
I personally was moved by this post myself. My partner and I share faith in the trinity, and I know some people don't put importance on having the same faith, but it helps a lot.
All the best

Amen Lori!
kate, i hope you always unashamedly tell others of the blessing God's given you in a godly husband. the more and more i'm around married women the less i hear positive things about their husbands. which makes me so sad! even though it's so hard sometimes, i pray you continue to be thankful for him. love ya!
