I wanted to share a few things I have learned in the last 16 years of marriage.
1. It really isn't all about me.
I have to put God first and my husband 2nd then my child and myself. I know is a self serving society this is a shocking and archaic concept, but my life runs smoother when I put my life priorities in that order.
2. My husband loves me more that I ever thought possible.
He really does. He comes from a family that didn't express love and feelings well, or at all for that matter. He has become my absolute best friend. I can and do trust him with my life. He has proven to me over the years that his love is truly unconditional.
3. Our child is smarter that we ever imagined!
I am very pleased with this! She is 4.5 and is in the 1st grade.
4. Even an only child can have self esteem or self confidence issues.
I never thought I would encounter my child being upset because her own stuffed animals don't want to play with her! She wants to be liked and accepted even though she has never experienced much rejection.
5. I have less patients with my daughter whilst teaching homeschool that I had hoped. I love being her teacher, however, there are days she just doesn't want to learn!
6. I am being prepared by God for something I'm still unsure about.
I pray daily and hope that He is going to use me to bring glory to Him and His Kingdom!
