i love my husband - kinda long
with all of the hard, awful things that have been happening the last few weeks, we really have been making huge strides to fix the things that are wrong with zach and wrong with our marriage. i had a meltdown last friday about an hour before his dad came over for lunch, and after his dad left, we talked things out a bit. i told him that i felt like he was selfish and only thought about himself. he agreed with me (he's been doing a lot of that lately - hehe) and said he would try to make a bigger effort to show that he is thinking of me.
this morning, i picked up my purse and it felt a bit heavier than normal, so i started rifling through, and he had bought one of my favorite treats (orange slices) and slipped it into my purse this morning before he left for work. i seriously teared up.
it gives me great hope that our marriage is on the mend. we have been communicating like never before. we've had better sex and wayyyyy more "face time" in bed. (this is zach's description of talking in bed, face to face, not face to back or back to back. i never knew that it meant so much to him until this past sunday.)
i want to thank you ladies for your thoughts and prayers. we are going to make it, and i am looking forward to sharing more of our journey with you all as time goes on.
Re: i love my husband - kinda long
I am soooo happy for you guys!!!!! I give you so much credit!!!! I am not sure I would have been as strong as you have been!
that is great news. the orange slices is so sweet. i'm convinced that it is all those little things that keep the spark alive (though big things now and again don't hurt!)
kudos, bethie, to you and zach for pushing through when times got tough and not giving up on each other.
