i love this blog because it gives me a place to write down whats going on inside, and somehow i find that when my laundry is aired i can breathe much better. the kind of laundry i'm gonna air today would probably be classified as your scarves and hats and perhaps a light jacket. my sadness isn't incredibly deep, but just the misty kind. we are moving from our first apartment together, the place where so much growth in our marrigae occurred. and that kinda makes me weepy. i think of the countless disagreements we've had staying up late working things out; and the first meals i burnt and eventually pefected there; the cozy nights and our first chirstmas! man, i have been so excited about the new place and with the busyness of life i haven't had much time to stop and think..and now that i am, sniffle..
but i think these feelings are normal and good, and leave wesley and me counting our blessings and thanking jesus for not leaving our sorry selves alone to flounder. and to take risks, and embrace change.. so an ode to change from one of my favorite movies of all time, braveheart, "every man dies. not every man really lives."
and btw, that is not our laundry room... :)
I wish that was MY laundry room! It's normal to have those emotions, girl. But think of all the great memories that you'll create together in your new place on your 2nd year. It's going to be amazing!
ReplyDeleteI can completely relate to those feelings, but God is so good that He gives us new ones! I love how you said "late nights of working things out"; Brady and I never close our eyes and go to sleep until any disagreement is settled. How beautiful His wisdom is!
