Oh marriage, you sneaky bastard

Oh marriage, you sneaky bastard!

 

I see what you did there. I meet the person I’d never imagine spending my life with and fall in love. Thinking it’ll be perfect because it was so imperfect. The only people who will judge my truth, is the ones in denial of their own. I don’t judge people for staying in imperfect marriages after all... here I am! I don’t want you to think I’m going to bash my husband because I will not. Although, after 15 years though I’ve earned the right to keep it real. When you take the vows for better or for worse I don't think you realize in the moment that you're signing up for madness, PURE MADNESS. Most of the time I have to make a joke out of every terrible thing that happens or that will make me lose my sanity. Would I marry him again? Yes ugh! He drives me nuts, I drive him nuts but we fit. All the rough patches...we get through it together. We're not the same people we were when we got married, I actually like myself way better now than back then. We grow from every good and bad thing that happens in life. He is the face I wake up to and the face I fall asleep to so even if I want to throat punch him while he sleeps, I love him unconditionally with every ounce of my being. Just make sure when you get married you really think... am I okay with picking up his dirty laundry that he leaves all over the house, act like a crazy person because he's out 1 second longer than I said was ok, falls asleep while I'm up with a sick kid or kids. It's not roses, but its worth it. Here's to another year of surviving this crazy thing called life together. Happy Anniversary!
