I have basically taken a step forward as if this marriage is going to work.
We talk a lot now about everything (except us). She gets a lot of the topics off of facebook. When she giggles at something I ask 'what's funny' type of things. Conversation starters is how I view them
Funny thing is she has almost been trying to see through or find holes in my positivity. A couple of times she has asked me why, when I have said that is awesome or great or what not.
One on particular...we were lying in bed the other night and I asked...is that s13 snoring, it was an odd sound. She said she thought so. I said that is great. She asked why is THAT great. I just said, not sure but I feel it is. Then told her sometimes I lay awake in bed listening to a chorus of the three of you guys snoring almost in harmony, and wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. She giggled and fell asleep. It was almost heaven when she reached out and held my arm while she fell asleep.
I know there is a long way to go. I am not getting my hopes amped up like in the padt, even keEl this time. I know there are going to be bumps and pitfalls I know that the 'physical' strain of workinking on things will be there.
We are going to Michigan this weekend as a family, next weekend we have Darien Rucker tickets out of town as a couple and lots of stuff between...busy busy busy.
