  • Great memories!

    This blog is really for me and Adam so we dont' forget yesterday.  So feel free to stop reading or continue.  But, as we age our memories are starting to go too so we thought it would be a good idea to record yesterday.

    I am actually going to give MY whole day because after all this is MY blog and I did have a really great day all the way around!

    It started out waking up to a beautiful morning.  The temperature was just perfect, not to hot, not to cold.  It was a little breezy outside and the sound of the leaves blowing in the wind and the birds singing was so peaceful and soothing.  At 8:30am I decided Isaac and I were going to go for a walk.  We both enjoyed being outside and just marveling at the beautiful days that God creates.

    After Isaac went down for his nap I made myself some coffee, grabbed my Bible and a book I am reading and sat on the deck for about an hour.  It was AWESOME!  That is one of my favorite things to do!

    I came in and found that Adam had emailed me.  This month is really tight for us financially because it is my first month not cleaning and we had MANY unexpected things come up that we would need money for.  So, in the beginning of the month I made a list of everything and started praying over it.  This past Sunday I got out my list, made a few changes for some things we no longer needed and some additional things that crept up and prayed a very specific prayer.  I prayed that God would give Adam 300 miles travelling this week as his mileage from work is helping us right now with our finances.  That was a VERY high number compared to what he normally gets!  Adam didn't know about this and emailed to tell me he had 210 miles in already and had alot more travelling this week still.  Then at the end of his work day yesterday he was up to 290 with more travelling yet today.  I was sooo excited!  I knew God was going to provide but at the same time......Adam has NEVER had as many miles as he is racking up this week!  I went back through all his paystubs this morning and he had 1 week in April that had 299 miles and another week back in Jan I think where he had 283.  I was just sooo amazed at my God!  He didn't just answer my prayer but he gave even more!  Last night Adam and I were able to go out for dinner for a date night.  It is so awesome to be able to depend on God and what a blessing to see HOW he blesses!

    Then, Adam called me on his way home from work and suggested a yummy Mexican place for dinner.  That was really exciting for me for 2 reasons.  One, I hadn't even thought of this place, haven't been there in months and I really like there food.  Two, I am a control freak but I also like to be spoiled.  The problem is...I am always so on top of things, planning ahead and being prepared that I often don't give Adam the chance to take care of me.  Then, I get frustrated with him when he doesn't spoil me on his own.  Well, how can he when I'm always 10 steps ahead of him because I have to do everything RIGHT AWAY and I just can't sit back and relax! 

    We had a really great time at dinner!  We had a really great conversation and the longer I am married to my husband the more I am thankful that he is my spiritual leader.  He is so wise.  We had a good time sharing our dinners which is also something that we dont' nomally do but his favorites and my favorites on our plates were opposite so it was fun to share!  After dinner we went to go see a movie that we both ended up really liking alot.    When the movie was over with I was kinda sad that our date night had ended.  Our lives have become very busy and now with a second child on the way I know that alone time with Adam is going to be fewer and farther between.  So i am learning to take what I get now and notice the special moments each time.  I am also thankful for a husband that after 5 years of marriage I would rather be around him than anyone else.  I know this is so cliche but he really does complete me and I feel like everything and anything is better as long as he is with me.  I never feel like I just have to get away from him and "become my own person" and I am very thankful for that!  Otherwise, "two becoming one" would be extremely difficult!    Thank you honey for a memorable evening!  :)
