"You come to love not by finding the perfect person, but by seeing an imperfect person perfectly."
I've come to realize something as I've grown in my marriage. There is no such thing as perfect. I know that sounds so completely obvious but when I think back to when Kurt and I were first married, I see a girl who had this image that marriage was perfect and like playing house. We all know life throws things at you that you never expected to come. I have learned that marriage takes work and a whole lot of it, it takes commitment, and selflessness. FAITH. I saw this quote that said those who have little faith have little love, and I believe thats true. It's very easy to give up. I've also come to appreciate my husband and see our love grow stronger everyday. He is amazing. He's not perfect and no one is, but he's perfect to me. It's the little things in life that bring us the most joy. Like flowers out of the blue:
Little thing like having a super handy husband. I feel very lucky, the guy can fix anything. I used to be doubtful when he would tell me Oh ya I can fix that. Now I know he can and he will. He keeps me laughing and I'm sure we act like a couple of kids together. I can't imagine what life would be without him and I wouldn't want to.
I love this Brad Paisley song, it's one of those songs that will never get old and the video is really cute. The words make me laugh because some of those things have happened in our marriage and they are hilarious to think back on. I can remember one night I was trying really hard to make a nice dinner and dessert for Kurt, I think it was his bday or something and I dropped the cake on the floor. Before that I felt like a chicken with my head cut off running around going nuts. When the cake fell I started crying and the smoke alarm started going off because it had burned. Kurt just held me, and was doing his best to console me when he started to laugh which in turn made me laugh. Things don't go perfectly, and why would we want them to......how boring would that be? #
