some days start early

Sunday morning started early. 3am early. The hubby had to be on a plane at 6am for work. I was the lucky one to be able to fall back asleep for a few hours after he left.

When we first started seeing each other and things began getting more serious. It took me a few weeks before I was ready to say, "ok yes...we're together". I somehow knew early on that if I was saying "yes" to dating, I was saying "yes" to a lot more.

We both knew early on we'd get married someday, yet we never talked of it!

So when we finally said "we're not single, we don't want to be single, we're together, we've been together for a while!" in my heart I was accepting it all. And that meant early mornings, late evenings and days with him gone. BUT I knew I'd rather be with him, with his job taking him away from home, than not be with him at all.

So occasionally there are 3am alarms and being woken up by a kiss on the forehead when he returns past midnight. But I love him with my whole heart and I love my life.

And so last night while I was missing my hubby, I thanked God for our home. I thanked Him for the time I had to do a load of laundry and vacuum so that while my hubby IS home, we don't have to worry about that sort of thing. And all of this... fills me with joy.

"Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you." 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18
