we have so many sad stories on relationships...and you could be forgiven into thinking that all relationships are bad...but they are not.
Every now and again someone you love shows their true colours...and DH has done that this weekend. he has shown me that our relationship is far more important to him than anything or anyone in the world... he stands by me and encourages me to be the bigger and mature person and let things go despite the evidence in my hands...
(case in point.. Sunday we went to my parents house...I told my brother you cannot lick you elbow... he tried to prove he could... he naturally failed, but still insisted that he could so after arguing for 10 mins with my brother...DH kindly said... remember what we talked about being a bigger person and letting it go...well I did let it go...and you know what... I felt good... Its a simplistic tale, one of many recently, but it illustrates my point..for someone so young he's really quite wise...and he's right I have to learn not to let things like this get to me...I have to let them go. no matter how much it annoys me...I just have ignore it, nod and say "whatever" .)
so I want to make a public thanks to my husband. the man who cares for our family, who cried at the birth of lil miss, but wipes Tia's and my tears away, with his kind and gentle words. Not every man can be strong and mature enough to take on another man's child, and despite being young, he has done it for 5 years with stoic pride...
We have come far in our years together, been through so much, yet stood side by side through it all, and when he hasn't been able to take my pain away...had to watch while I suffered, when I had to go through things alone... he has still been there in the background cheering me on, holding my hand, believing in me. He's not just my husband... he's my best friend, my soul mate, and I knew he was the one from the moment I saw him. He came along when I'd lost all hope in men...been beaten and betrayed for years and renewed my faith. And I love him for it all...
No one is perfect, he doesn't do things wrong just different, and our differences add excitement, challenge our intellects and keeps our relationship from going stale.
So to my husband...Thank you from the bottom of my heart...
