10 Months Down

? to go.

Today marks our 10th monthiversary of marriage.

Joking with Jacob I asked, “Can you believe we have been married for ten months and haven’t killed each other yet?” He responded with this question, “Does that surprise you?” Me, “More everyday.”

Truth be told, it does not surprise me. I love Jacob, very much so. We have learned many things in these ten months. Such as a dishwasher really does make happiness, and when you live in a house (v. apartment) you do not have to turn the TV down after 10pm. I think we have learned more about sharing and caring for some one else more than ourselves (at least part of the time). I know I need to work harder on that one, but after 27 years of not being married, there is bound to be some adjustment.

Then there is the dreaded “C” word, communication. Suffice it to say, we are still reading the dictionary on that one. I just hope we are using the same dictionary.

I love you Jacob, and I am glad you are my mate.
