1 year has come and gone since i married my wonderful husband and since i saw many of my good friends at the wedding as well.
As i look back on this last year i think to myself "Wow a lot has changed for the better."
I remember when we had only been married for about a month and i was seriously struggling with all the changes that had just taken place in my life. I prayed and cried a lot that month and not because i married the man that i did but because i was having a hard time enjoying it all.
I struggled with wedding plans not actually being quite the way i would have done them and feeling a little like it really wasn't my wedding at all... to struggling with sex being as great as it was somewhat also confused by it, to struggling with feeling so alone in a new place and home not knowing what to do with myself. I'm just thankful that the Lord gave me such a patient and enduring man to help guide me through it all.
Now as we are visiting Kentucky again to try to find a place to live i think about that first month of marriage and how greatly things have changed for the better.
Many people used to tell me that their first year of marriage was the best and then things got real hard afterwards. Well our first year of marriage was hard but things are getting better now that we've really learned what it means to love one another.
I look forward to the years ahead that will be full of their own trials and difficulties but will also be filled of a lot of joy and blessings.
It all just takes a little time sometimes though :)
