Yesterday was a great day but it always seems like when you have a day like that, something kind of slams you and you have something bad happen. We found out yesterday that my sister-in-law and her husband were splitting up. Nothing is final of course but she started packing up her things and moving back in with my in-laws.
I don't know all of the details but I do know that it wasn't her fault and she was completely caught off guard. I have always thought they were a strange couple. They couldn't have kids so they had other activities that they did and they always seemed to have a good time. I guess you never know what happens behind closed doors.
Hearing this news made me really realize how much I love my husband. My marriage has not always been perfect. We got pregnant and had Mindy within the first year of our marriage so immediately we had to turn our focus on something other than ourselves. We had such a great time though during her first year. The day she turned one we moved in with his parents while we built our house. That was when things started to go downhill a little bit. Naturally living under someone else's roof will do that. After a year and a half we finally moved into our new house and not too long after that we found out we were going to have Mason.

After Mason was born, I had a really hard time with post partum depression. Danny was so great and helped me through it but it definitely didn't make things easy. So we went through a sort of slump. We got along fine but that spark had kind of fizzled a little.

Things started to perk up though and now we are great! I love him more today than I did the day I married him. We have such a good time together and we know how to work together to make our marriage work. We compliment each other. We laugh all the time and we have such a good time with our kids. Is every day perfect? Absolutely not! But more often than not we are fantastic.
I love that man more than life itself and I am grateful for the marriage that we have.
