I'm sitting here with my wife. We've had our first really great weekend that we haven't had to do anything in awhile. We didn't have any family functions or family drama to deal with. The weather was nice, and we spent a good amount of time laying together in bed. I've forgotten how much fun that was. When we first started dating, we would spend hours laying in bed in the morning. After our first few dates, we didn't leave my bed until almost noon. I have the greatest memories of laying in bed with her, talking, laughing, and having morning sex.

We didn't plan on laying around all morning either. We woke up and laid with one another, almost reliving our dating stage. It's something that I never want to lose with her. In all honestly, I somehow doubt we'll ever lose that passion for each other. I hope not anyways. Yes we're still newlyweds, and it's great. We have our issues that we are dead set on working through. But we've never lost sight of that passion that we share for each other.

Marriage is extremely scary. Well it can be. I never had a doubt that I was doing the wrong thing with marrying my wife. I never got cold feet, and the closer it got, the more excited I got. I honestly was worried that I'd get nervous or scared. None of that happened, which makes me even more sure I married the right woman. The scary thing about marriage is that it's an unknown road that you aren't on by yourself. In my single life, I had me that I had to worry about. If something happened, I only had to be concerned with my actions. Now it's different. I have my wife to worry about, and we have a life together. It's no longer me and it's no longer all her. It's us as one, walking into the unknown together. As scary as that is, I'm perfectly happy and ready to face this life with her.
