sweetness.

i just had the best 15 minutes of my life.
pure happiness.


me doing dishes and hearing jonah and adam playing in the other room. then adam tells jonah to run up and hug me, he does and then hits me in the butt and runs away. i chase jonah and “get” him and then suddenly the game turns into get mommy. they both tickle me and we all start chasing and tickling eachother. then jimmy eats world’s “sweetness” comes on and we dance and sing.

this is the life.

go ahead and judge me for embracing that i'm creative. it's just showing me that you aren't.

achievement unlocked! 2 years! 50 G


Today is the hubby and i's 2nd anniversary.
First of all I'm not gonna lie, we forgot until just the other day. Who has time or money this time of year?
Secondly, it hasn't been easy. We have issues like the rest of couples do. Pre-marriage counseling told us it would be rough but we never thought much about it. We thought we were different....
Not to say we haven't had our good times! Making this little family was the best desicion I've ever made and i believe he feels the same way too.
I would like to say there are many things that i appreciate and love about our marriage. Too many things to type and not enough time in the day to do so. Here are a few of the things that I love about us.
-we play video games together. like dudes. like best friends. we bond and kick butt.
-we can communicate so well. i hear of other couples having issues with being able to talk about how they feel but we usually don't. we are not perfect with it by any means. but we try really hard ever since we had the training from the pre-marriage counseling.
-we have a huge history together. we dated almost 2 years starting out when i was only 14 and he was 15. we had a break and got back together senior year. we were good friends from the moment we started talking in 8th grade. when i went to start school there they have a little orientation for new students and i met his mom before him as she was part of the staff. i remember him telling me later she talked to him about me, how i was pretty and he might like me. :)
-we have very similar senses of humor. we feed off each others jokes so much and have eachother cracking up. i love that about us because it always seemed like i would never find someone who really understood my humor.
-we have similar taste in music. we have the music that we both like. then like adam likes christian metal, i don't really but i don't mind most of it. then i'm into a lot of stuff he doesn't really like but will tolerate. just another thing that i'm glad we don't have to worry about it.

and most of all, we both just love eachother. so much.

for instance. that two years that we were apart we would see eachother from time to time. sometimes having some periods of time in there where we were hanging out. but mostly we both just felt like we were waiting. i didn't admit this until not too long a go when he said the same thing to me. he was always that guy. i would always get that feeling when i saw him. and when we got back together, we both just kinda knew it was right.
it's kinda hard to talk about that time because of circumstances with my ex. but i'm okay with it now. i loved him too. just not like adam. just as a friend. i was foolish for leading him on for 2 years. for talking about marriage and kids. i was a kid. and i know it was sudden and seemed cold hearted but i couldn't lead him on anymore. adam and i both wanted to be together so badly. i know it doesn't seem possible to just know when your 18...but we did. i'm glad that i've made the life choices i have, as adam, jonah and i wouldn't be here or who we are today.

adam-
i appreciate you so much. i'm glad i get to wake up everyday as mrs. garvin. i'm happy i chose you. you are a beautiful person. i'm lucky to have you babe.
