The Truth and Nothing But
As some of you may have read on my hubby’s blog, this past Friday was a pretty bad evening for the both of us. We had a very intense conversation in our bedroom away from the children. That has always been something we felt was important. To try not to argue or fight when the kids were able to see or hear us. Our conversation was very honest and I began to open up to him and honestly tell him my feelings. It has not been easy for me over the past few years. Having a kid really does change things for any relationship or marriage. There is a whole new element added in there. It has been very rough for our relationship these past three and a half years. As my hubby’s blog is titled it is very appropriate for where our relationship is now. Why is that? Why has something changed in our relationship? With the change in caring for a baby (now a three year old and a baby). The stress of work, finances, this and that we have seemed to both become unhappy in our marriage. We have just been “going along” and not living our lives together. The day in and day out things have defined who we changed in to. We lost what we had before. Who the hell knows why that truely happens to some. The thing now is to get back to it. Get back to a happy marriage and family. For our relationship, for our kids and for ourselves!
The hubby mentioned in his post that since Friday was horrible “this weekend will probably be the same”. Well, I can truthfully tell you it has been a wonderful weekend. For the first time I truely went to bed not mad at my hubby, and I woke Saturday morning happy. His daughter was over this weekend and I feel it went well. I did not distance myself from her and I interacted with her better. Sunday was no different. The grandparents took the two older kids for the afternoon and the baby was asleep. So for the first time in almost a year we had one of these moments while the sun was up! That put the hubby in a good mood for the rest of the afternoon. So much so he fixed my bleeding heart vine outside (on his own); it had been knocked over in a storm. Thank you honey!!!
