Nov 7: Thankful for my REAL Marraige



Sometimes a REAL marriage means babies and puppies and a first home. 

Sometimes, like today, a REAL marriage means sitting in a downtown café, drinking hot tea instead of coffee (because your spouse is being a good sport and you're eating “clean” together), and letting your hopes, dreams, and fears pour out onto the table. In a REAL marriage, people sacrifice their preferences, their comfort, and sometimes even their careers for the benefit of the family.  

I love the joyous moments we share as a couple as we celebrate personal victories or our children’s milestones, but I find the moments of sacrifice, vulnerability, and recommitment to be just as beautiful.
