i am grateful for my husband & my family.


As in every marriage, no matter how many years or what stage it is in, we all experience the ups and downs. Everyday I feel like I become a little bit wiser, and I've realized it's not only because my husband is an amazing guy, but because pulling through tough times really makes a bond that much stronger. Not just an earthly bond but a bond that is spiritual and everlasting. 


This couple in particular has reminded me how important it is to reach out and tell your family and loved ones just how special they are to you. I can feel this woman's heartache of losing her husband and her courage to feel the joy that he saved her life and their baby's. My heart goes out to her, as I can understand the confusion of why such an accident could ever happen from our own experience here, but I am blessed to have the time with my husband to really learn and embrace this little bit of wisdom her and her husband have passed on.


Today, let's make it a point to reach out to those we love and care, and make it a part of each and everyday.

  4. Yes, we need to hold on tight to the ones we love. My husband and I recently suffered a miscarriage and it strengthened our bond.
