They say failure is not an option. But it was clearly the option for us not to long ago.

Have you ever prayed for something and someone but you weren’t willing to WAIT for God to do in his timing?

That’s what happened in our marriage. We knew we wanted each other. We knew that we were each other’s person. But we rushed into everything.

We rushed into the bed too soon, we rushed into parenthood, we rushed into love, we rushed into marriage and we were quick to rush into a divorce.

The entire time we were rushing we didn’t do a lot of discussing, trusting, listening, compromising, praying, nor working together. We lacked the ability to do the work.

Sometimes our worst enemy is the inner me. We took a left turn somewhere and we didn’t want us anymore. BUT GOD!!!!

Now just like this picture even though Shaun had me, I was still afraid. I knew he wouldn’t drop me, because he’s picked me up so many times before, but because of the timing we were in, during our relationship I was afraid.

Much like our relationship, We knew that God had us, but we were still afraid. And it’s ok to be afraid. But one day you have to let go of the wall, the fear, the noise around you, your own insecurities and learn how to trust.

The road is a long one for us, but walking together is better than walking alone.

This morning I started my day off like any other day.

Prayer, welcoming my husband back from from a long night of work. Asking about his night. Loving on him a little until he falls asleep.

Then I’m up. Myles usually gets up first, change him, feed him, he’s talking more nowadays so we hold a cute conversation just before he falls back asleep. Then it’s on to Micah, bathroom run, breakfast and then Bluey.

This morning while doing my usually running around I happened to walk by the nightstand one time too many and noticed these things. Before I even read the card my heart 💜 started beating fast. I instantly got butterflies in my stomach. And my eyes started watering.

I couldn’t stop and read it at the moment because the two under two were going in. But when I did, my heart melted. It was the last thing in the card that really got me.

I’m here for you, no matter what.

I needed that this morning. It’s the little things that can change a person’s day. Through all the noise, the running back and forth, the sleepiness in my spirit, it was nice to calm down and enjoy knowing how Shaun loves me.

My husband said something today that made me think. He said forgiveness can sometimes make you forgetful.

Sometimes we ask people to forgive us and they do, then we expect them to treat us how they did before the hurt.

Truth is even with forgiveness the pain is still there, we still hear those words, we still see those actions.

When asking for forgiveness, remember to leave room for healing.

Hurt requires forgiveness, forgiveness needs healing. Healing takes time.

Do you know how important it is to acknowledge your spouse’s love language?

I have never been the one who liked PDA, kissing, cuddling and all that touching stuff. I believe it’s was from the abuse from men growing up.

When I got with Shaun I noticed how much he liked doing all of those things. Yikes 😳 was my first reaction.

Truth is I pushed him away so many times, because I didn’t understand how important it was to him. My love language was easy and simple …TIME! That’s all I needed from him.

Little did I know that my not acknowledging his love language, actually caused him to feel like I didn’t love him or desire him. That was far from the truth.

It seemed natural to me because I never allowed my heart to love anyone like I love my husband. So kissing was a hard NO! No PDA, we not holding hands none of that, cause we ain’t cool like that.

After accepting his love language I’ve learned that it’s a warm and cozy feeling. Being in his arms gives me butterflies. Him holding my hand or waist in public shows me and others that he loves me that way. Ain’t gonna lie kissing took some time. But I think I got it now.

We will never know the power of any language of love if we refuse to try it. Do you know your spouse’s love language? You should try to figure it out, then try it. Tell us how it works out.
