Last night, Brian and I practiced a song the day before the wedding rehearsal as we always do when we sing in weddings. We are singing New Song w/Natalie Grant’s version of “When God Made You” . . . we also did it for another friends wedding a few years back. It is a really nice song but has potential to be cheesy, and we totally were going nuts with it last night. Looking longingly into each others eyes, Brian doing intense back phrasing to the point you didn’t think he was going to finish the line. We were laughing so hard.

As I was looking around the house saying, I can’t believe it in here, a lightbulb burst over my head in the dining room and we were laughing as Brian said “are you ok?”

“Yes I’m fine oh man everything is falling apart! I think that brings our total lightbulbs out in the house to about 8! There’s crap everywhere, socks on the floor, our entire counter is full of dishes, we forgot to take the trash out wednesday, we have so many dirty glasses I used a plastic cup for my water, the cats litter needs changed, my work papers are strewn all over the living room, we are just getting ready for the wedding, everything is INSANE!!!!”

But somehow looking at my husband (equally stressed) but laughing face, it didn’t seem quite so bad. It doesn’t matter how much I might feel like I’m failing, he never makes me feel that way. Even if I tell him something I’m embarrassed of or a feeling I am having, he just loves me more. We laugh so much, and he comforts me and knows me. Sure there are times I feel he doesn’t “get it” but we move past it. That’s life, marriage, and love.

When God you, he must have been thinking about me…. (yes, we were watching this version last night while reviewing the song and loving it lol!)

Also thinking about Danielle today on her last clinic ever, and proud of her yesterday.
