Good Feelings

Today I'm feeling grateful. I believe reality is colored by our emotions sometimes- that's why bad times can be so bad when we're in them and once we move on, and we are happy, we don't really remember them being that bad. It is amazing how much brighter the light is when the shades you are looking through are not dark. Happiness is the best feeling, and until you've lived in sadness, you won't appreciate it enough. Oh the little things I have taken for granted...

So today I'm thinking about all the blessings I have. The love I am able to feel for my husband is pure. It isn't tainted with uncertainty, it isn't punctuated with questions. I trust him with my life, with my heart, and with my children (the children I know I will have one day, and who I want to be his). What peace of mind it is to know that this life we are building together is like a house being built with stone.

Chad, I love you more today than I ever have before. My heart waited until you came- to love you with it's best, and most special love. I'm so glad you're here now. Thank you for being my anchor, my parachute, and my wings. I love you.
