~A Love Story ... It's the Little Things~
Today was AMAZING!!! One of the BEST days I've had in a LONG time! Slept in till 10 AM ... that's pretty normal. It helped SO much that baby boy didn't wake up ONCE during the night, and he slept all the way through :) Thank you, Josiah! :) Well, Josiah and I have our morning routine of nursing, changing his diaper, and playing ... so we started the day like we always do *wink* ... and it was Matthew's last day off so we also set this day aside to RELAX. I jumped on PTL right away! I was SOOOO excited to get back on after not having been on much at all in the last 3 days. Then hubby served us up each a BIG slice of rainbow chip cake ;) And then there was a SUGAR high to boot! Josiah was such a good boy almost all the day through. He took a nap and then hubby and I had "OUR time" and we made the most it *wink* So after cuddle time and "top secret things" (hehehehe) Josiah wakes up right on cue and we go into relaxation mode quickly. Then we had some fun playful time with Josiah on the floor, and then Matthew had some personal time out on the patio. When he came back in after bit I asked if he would mind coming on a walk with me and Josiah, and he said he'd like that :) So we walked and talked all over the surrounding neighborhood, and it was WONDERFUL! We talked and talked about our life now and some future dreaming, and we talked about going to the Midwest next year in the late summer to visit family and how we each saw that panning out. We talked about cars and what we're going to do when we're debt free by August 2013! We are SOOO excited to be on our way to being debt free! That was the whole reason my husband joined the ARMY at age 26 ... to help us get out of debt quickly. We opened up about everything, and I just LOVE it when that happens. I want my husband to be able to talk to me about anything without fear of anything. When we got home I made some grilled chicken salads (quick meal), and we sat at the dining room table for the first time in a LONG time and shared a nice meal while we watched and mutually enjoyed watching Josiah play with his toys on the floor :) Today was just SO wonderful, and we also took a really fun video of Josiah with saying "Where's the baby? There he is!!!" I'll see if I can post that here soon :) Love you all! ❤❤❤

Awww ... thank you for sharing that, Lisa ;) Good night ❤
Thank you, Jessie :) I know it's been awhile, hasn't it ❤ I am VERY blessed and I have ZERO complaints. Thank you! I'm glad we can be an inspiration. There was a family I knew in my home town that was OUR inspiration ... they were a Godly family, and just SO loving to everyone, and whenever Matthew and I would visit we'd say "this is what we want our marriage to look like" and so we're doing the best we can asking God for help and strength everyday :) Missed you too! Missed being here :) Love you! ❤
Thank you both, Raquel & Jessie ❤ I like the pic too ;)
Aww that sounds like lovely day. Love you. <3
