And they came.
And he pushed them.
And they flew.

"Lean on me" he said,
loving her weakness.
And she leaned hard,
adoring his strength.
Like two slant trees
they grew together,
their roots the wrong way
for standing alone

Married life
People keep asking me what married life feels like. I am never sure how to answer because not much really changed after the wedding. And I have to be careful about saying I am not feeling well because people always assume I must be pregnant lol. These are the things that come along with marriage.

But seriously, married life is great. I think I am still recovering from the trip home/wedding though. I have to start working on thank you cards, even though there is no way they will be enough to really say thank you for everything that was done for us. I have never felt so lucky in my entire life.

Seeing my family and friends - and having them all in the same place at the same time - was a little surreal. Wonderful, but surreal. It was something that I knew then and I know now will never ever happen again. Luckily, I lived in the moment, which is what I told myself to do. I got up that morning and promised myself that I would relax and love every moment because I deserved it all. Now, I can look back at all the (thousands of) photos and the videos and remember and know that it was perfect. It was all perfect.

I thought I would feel sad or empty when it was all over, but I don't. I just feel happy and ready to live my life. Now that I don't have a wedding to plan we can do that. First we are planning a honeymoon though, hopefully for the spring. And yes, we will have babies. Just not yet. For now we are just living and loving every minute of it and it's great.
