I’m pretty wiped out and so is Lindsey after this week. We’ve found out that when you are running on empty everything is magnified. Your need for each other, your ability to be frustrated, and the likelihood of you being the frustrating one.
We had a fight tonight, and I’m almost certain it stemmed from this frustrating, long week. We have made up and will not go to bed angry, but we still have a lot to learn. And it’s ok, and it will be ok– we both know it.
But hey, this is the fun part of the blog. Open honesty. Isn’t it great? 😉
Dear Brian and Lindsey, I’ve been following your posts for awhile now. Having to write everyday sounds like quite a task, but do keep it up. I enjoy reading your blog very much and am encouraged by your stories and the little things you appreciate about your lives and in each other. It is probably too soon to say this, but I hope this goes beyond the “first year”. 🙂
Mayjin,
Thank you for the kind words. We really enjoy writing this blog every day, even if only for ourselves. To know that others enjoy it and find something valuable in it is a great side effect and encouragement.
