As of today, Taylor and I have been married for 2 MONTHS! Crazy..(it feels like a lot longer, in a good way HA!) At each milestone, if you will, I like to reflect back on our previous 30 days and take note of all the good times and bad times, our adventures we've been on, and just simple little things I've learned about our relationship. 

It's honestly probably from watching too many Disney princess movies in my life, but before I got married I always thought that everyday with my husband would be magical and romantic and amazing and perfect..but I had a very rude awakening when I realized that marriage doesn't really work out that way HA! Some days are good, some days are AWESOME, and some days just need to be forgotten. But that's okay! It's not always easy living a new life with someone while still trying to figure each other out completely. You just gotta take it day by day.




 Moving out here just 9 days after we were married was a big adjustment that I think has taken a bigger toll on me mentally than I initially thought it would. I'm a very sensitive person, not only with words and actions, but also to my environment, so wanting to spend every waking moment with Taylor and actually not seeing him all day while I sit in the house most days really affects me. I can easily think myself into a bad mood by drowning in my own feelings of loneliness, inadequacy, boredom, basically any negative feeling, and it puts me out for the whole day- one of my weaknesses that I'm trying to work on.

Taylor is the complete opposite! If you know him at all, there's not a single negative bone in his whole body- a strength of his! He's the most energetic, happy, fun, positive person I've known (except for my dad, which is one reason I fell for him so quickly). It makes me wonder why he ever chose to marry me, but opposites attract, right?? Haha!

I've learned that in any relationship, it is important to accept each other's strengths AND weaknesses. I am SO GRATEFUL to have such a loving and patient husband who doesn't get angry with me when I'm sad and upset and take forever to explain my feelings to him while I cry my eyeballs out. I am SO GRATEFUL that he sees and accepts all of my imperfections and chooses to love them and praise them even when I'm ashamed of them and want to cover them up. I am especially grateful to have a man that loves me unconditionally and sees everything that I can become when I'm still learning to love myself.




To tell the truth, I really don't know where I would be without this man. Marriage can be hard..but it is SO worth it! These past two months really have been so amazing, despite the hard times (how would be be able to appreciate the good times without them?!) Taylor is such a strength and example to me, the number one person I want to tell when I have good news, and the only person I want to fall asleep next to each night. I'm so happy that I have the rest of my life to learn and grow with him and to help each other (mostly me because he's basically perfect) become the best versions of ourselves that we can be. Here's to my best friend, my lover, my biggest blessing- thanks for being my everything. 2 months down, eternity to go!
