Fourteen years ago today and only four weeks after I met Jason, the man who would become my husband, he showed up on my doorstep with flowers and took me out for my birthday. We went to the Olive Garden, still a favorite of mine, and we had a very enjoyable time. The only problem… [continue reading]
Marriage
The other day Jason and I were talking about our dating relationship versus our marriage relationship. I told him that marriage was quite a shocker for me because I expected him to be just as interested in my views, desires, and wishes as when we dated and…uh…he wasn’t. 🙂 He didn’t really say much after… [continue reading]
Clang, Clang, Clang
Jason and I were at a nice, candle-lit restaurant enjoying the quiet and the food – in that order. When all of the sudden I heard this loud clang, clang, clang. It sounded like it came from underneath our own table. I looked up at Jason, who sat there eating normally, and then I looked… [continue reading]
What Goes Around Comes Around
Several years ago when our oldest was a baby, Jason purchased about fifty dollars’ worth of shirts and jeans and took them home to try on since Sam’s Club does not have dressing rooms. The next morning we got in the car to return most of them to get our money back. When we arrived… [continue reading]
Tornadoes Today
It’s been pouring rain today, but I’ve been immersed in homeschooling and really didn’t give it much thought. However I ran to turn on the TV when I heard that several tornadoes touched down in and around downtown Dallas where Jason works. I waited nervously for him to get home for he once again has… [continue reading]
Sweet Nothings
I think it’s sweet that when I crawl into bed after my husband is asleep he has always said something like, “You awesome wife” or “You gorgeous woman” until recently that is. A couple of weeks ago when I got in bed he sat up and screamed, “YIKES scary monster!” I laughed so hard; I… [continue reading]
The Purpose of Cologne
While my husband was getting ready, my first-grader asked him what the cologne was for. “It’s to make me smell good…so that Mommy will like me.” He grinned “Well why can’t you just be yourself?”
Our First Date
Continued from: How I Met My Man. Friday evening came, and as I got ready for my date with Jason, I tried to think of things to talk to him about because I was a little worried that it would be up to me to carry the conversation the entire evening. Although I really wasn’t… [continue reading]
How I Met My Man
I was out of college and teaching at a small Christian school in Lincoln, Nebraska. Everyone seemed to think that it just wasn’t right that I wasn’t married yet, and they all knew of someone that I just had to meet. At first I was horrified. I had been set up on one date in… [continue reading]
Sunglasses
Sunday after the service I noticed Jason’s sunglasses left on the pew as he was leaving. “Hey Babe you forgot your glasses!” I called out to him and gave him my best smile. Later after we had ordered our lunch at our favorite restaurant, I noticed his sunglasses sitting on the table. “This is a… [continue reading]
