What A Challenge

Being married anymore is a challenge right? It's true, people used to say "if you can get past those first 5 or 10 years you are good" now its if you can get past 30 you MIGHT stand a chance! People quit relationships left and right and most of the time is to leave the marriage for someone else! Nobody wants to be alone. So I told Russ when we married it was not for better or for worse it was a strong statement towards "to death do us part" We will be widows before we are divorcees! Everyday is a challenge maybe not always a hard one but getting up with the same person everyday and then going to bed with the exact is sometimes hard for some. Mine snores so sometimes it is hard for me! LOL! (I had to put humor somewhere right?) I love James Russell with every ounce of my heart and soul and every inch of my body..that's a lot! ;) I need him in order to breathe comfortably, I need him to laugh and yell at. He is my only best friend. He made me an absolutely gorgeous son and shares with me another. Nope he isn't perfect but find me someone who is. I will say this, many women and I do mean many (sorry honey) have shared a piece of their life with MY husband but no one has walked away with what I have. We will never be rich in material ways but our affectionate, emotional relationship has way more to offer. On June 2nd we will celebrate 3 years. I once said "its only our 3rd its no biggie" and boy was I quickly corrected. They were right it is a big deal, in our society its a challenge and we conquered another year. We will celebrate boldly and hope to be just as strong 50 years from now! I love you Russell Forever and Always

  1. keep loving each other! I believe in being married forever and it's sad how few couples stay together anymore. I am totally young and free but really old school at the same time :)
