Perfect L O V E

  Frequently I get messages and comments about how perfect Alex and I are. So sweet!! I really am so thankful to have him as my husband and I wouldn't have it any other way.  I prayed long and hard asking God for my soulmate to come into my life early on. Alex and I have been together for 5 years and we learn things about each-other daily. I believe all honeymoon phases end in all relationships. I also wouldn't ever play it off that we are perfect because is there NO  such thing, nope not real. We love eachother so much that the struggles don't hurt us but build us. I love that Alex sometimes hurts my feelings but jumps at an opportunity to show he loves me. I love that I push Alex's buttons and he gets frustrated so  I push myself to give him time to relax. I love that we sometimes just DONT talk. I REALLY LOVE that when we get on each others nerves Alex never raises his voice.  Alex has never called me a degrading name even things small like your a jerk, your annoying, stupid. I can be crying in my car because I'm just pissed off at the world and he will sit in the passenger seat and start messing with me. I sometimes have to hide and be angry because I know when we are in the same room I can't be mad anymore! We fight, we get annoyed, we sometimes just have to get away from eachother.  The best part about Alex and I we love eacother so much that we couldn't not see eacother on our wedding day. We sat together while I got breakfast for a few minutes :).  When I visit family in Indiana Alex can't sleep in our bed because he can't fall asleep...so he sleeps on the couch. When Alex is at work I miss him and have to force myself not to call him just to see what he is doing now... When we do get annoyed with eacother we end up talking a few hours later about it realizing..hey we both aren't morning people and he doesn't love family pictures. (sorry buddy thats never changing haha). He is defff  the calm one in this marriage. When I see life crumbling on us he sees it as opening up a new opportunity. I love that God gave me someone level headed and open minded because I'm stubborn and hard headed. Our relationship isn't actually perfect we just love each other so much that we're happy with struggles.  We both receive and give love in two completely different ways so its not always perfect we struggle, we forget to give love the way the other needs, we get busy. BUT I'm thankful we can struggle together.
