What you really should know...

I came in to check my email tonight before heading off to bed. I thought Blogger had created some kind of crazy error because I was getting emails about comments left on a post that I had not written. With great confusion, I clicked on the link to the post in question, fully expecting to be directed to someone else's blog only to be directed to my blog with sure enough a post that I had not written. As I read it, it became very clear there was no mistake, Matt just decided it was time he take part in the blog writing efforts.....in a mighty strange and unexpected way.

What you should you really know is that I married someone that makes me laugh everyday. I went into our bedroom to find him in bed, reading, and as soon as I said "Well, Matt..." he burst out laughing. We both had a good laugh and really, that was his sole purpose in that blog, to try to make me laugh.

All of the things he said are true. He does have a hug for me every morning and I go to bed every night knowing that I am loved by my husband. There are times that I think that we just could not be more opposite, but then I realize that there's such value in the balance that we provide to each other and our family. He's an amazing father and loves Hannah Cate like I never could have imagined. It's been such a privilege to experience. I can't wait to see him with his "three girls" come January.

I married my best friend and am so thankful for the laughs he provides. As I am sure you would all agree, marriage is not easy. It's a refining fire like I have never experienced. It's not always Rosy and pretty, but I can't imagine walking this road with anyone else. I really am blessed.
