He asked me to dance....

My husband....

He doesn't dance... One of the first things we talked about during our first date. 

But I'll never forget the day before he asked me to marry him he asked me to dance to a song that would later become our song: "Have you ever really loved a woman?"

We slowed dance right there in the middle of the living room.

That very thing has become the thing that makes me fall back in love with him each and every time...

We slow dance, a lot, not to be cheesy, but to feel each other as we do.

It's beautiful... and I miss it

Every time I stare at my empty living room floor I think, "I could be slow dancing with him right now..."

I truly feel that this tradtion is what seperates us as a couple...

We understand that we need to "feel" each other, not in a sexual matter, but more so in a physical way

I can't wait to slow in his arms again

I miss him....

During our regular date nights... He asked me to dance....

COLOR RUN!!

Oh yea, 5K son!!

I've never been so excited for a run in my life. Not just cause they throw color powder and paint at you as you run (ok a large amount of the excitement is due to this fact) but because it allows me to refocus on something other than counting down the weeks for Davids return, or the next memorial....

You see, all I have to usually look forward to are really depressing things, So when this came up I jumped on it! Heck, I'm wearing a tutu during the whole thing :)

I just want a picture of myself really smiling, not just a polite smile but a "I'm so freakin happy to be here" smile. So if this is what will make that happen, lets do it.... and pray I don't pass out before I reach the finish line

Passion

I was asked a great question from a good friend today, "One word to describe your marriage/relationship?"

Passion

We had it from the moment we laid eyes on each other. We felt it deep inside of ourselves when we saw one another....

We love eachother with this very strong sensation... 

We fight for this relationship with the same sensation...

It is the driving force behind us marrying in 11 days

It's still the driving force behind each email, letter, post, and thought

We are on our way to being married 5 years, and its a beautiful/passionate thing(:

Soccer Camp... and his Dad...

His coach has a British Accent... I was confused too lol

Let's be honest... 

As I was getting him ready for soccer camp (shirt, shorts, shin guards, socks, and shoes) he looks up at me with those brown eyes and says, "Daddy gonna be proud huh?" 

*Take a deep breath*

I say, "Yes son, he thinks you'll be amazing and fast..."

He looks down at his shoes and says, "I run fast like he teach me!"

*Bit your lip, hold it together*

I say, "Yes, and kick hard..."

"Ok momma, take pictures, Daddy need to see me." 

I went to David's FB page today as I was getting ready to write this... Saw this cute little quote on his quote section...

"Two things a child never forgets.
A mothers voice, and a Fathers embrace."

amen
