Ya things over the last few months are really shaping up for me and my Honey. Not that anything was ever wrong before but we are just getting really into the groove right now and really feeling good both alone and together it seems.
I think one day we will be good at the empty nest when it happens.
Meeting for drinks after work while the kids fend for themselves at home with homework, escaping for a 2 week holiday very soon and looking forward to every single minute together, committing to two 2hour walks per day on the gorgeous ocean, getting all excited about his new I-Pad and my new I-Phone that we will both be getting really soon.
Planning out exactly how we are going to buy something really big that is not even for sale (we already planned the celebration because we know we will make it happen) Join us for Martinis anyone???
Just finding ourselves in great routines of togetherness, aloness, parentness and partnerness. It is all making sense lately.
He is getting better at controlling the annoying habit that often takes over our lives and I am getting better at being less annoying in general.
We talk a lot, we cuddle more, and we are kinder to each other.We are more on the same cycle, have more of the same expectations.
I am damn proud we have been through 16 yrs. of marriage and still going strong. Many ups and downs and obstacles have come our way, but we pull through. We make it…we make it work. We stick together.
He will always be my partner in crime. People joke to me lately that if I want a baby I need to go to a sperm donor-but I realize that is impossible because I want his babies and no one else’s (and I am clearly not getting any nor do I truly want anymore of them in reality).
He is the most amazing father. And what I love best is that he grows into this role everyday. He becomes more amazing as their Dad and constantly adapts and changes to what they need and what he has to offer them. He is a work in progress and a fine peice of art.
This guy and I are as different as night and day in every single way but we both value and cherish the same things. Family, Career, Friendships.Cottage.
The way I can sum it up is that we have set each other up well in case something happens to each other. We go beyond each other. My priority is to make sure that with or without me he is more than ok. He does that same for me. We try to make sure there are plenty of people to love and who love us. That’s how much we love eachother.
These last few days I am fighting for this guy..fighting for his future and his dreams. Trying to help him achieve what is usually not possible. Trying to attack an opportunity from crazy and weird angles. Shhhh..we have a secret.
And it is working. Not because of me. Not because of him,. But because of both of us together. Exactly where we belong.
