My One True Love.



My One True Love.

Earlier this week I was asked about my wedding flowers. They were simple, and my mom ended up making them for me for a fraction of the price I had found anywhere else. I love deals, and my wedding was the ultimate deal. I went through pictures to send them off to her and again my heart melted.

My wedding day was so perfect, mostly because it was all about Nic and I and though there were things that might have gone wrong, the day the experience, the whole thing all together just warms my soul when I think about it. That is how my relationship with Nic has always been, just like it fulfills my every need. And though things might go wrong or we might disagree, we are incredibly lucky to have a marriage that doesn’t require much work.

One day, Nic and I had been fighting about something silly. I kid you not when I say the only things we ever really argue about are silly. Mostly rotten cherries or if the white garbage can is back in the laundry room or not. We used to argue about his family, but luckily we just laugh about most of the dramatics now. Anyway… I was taking a tub (the ultimate treat for a mom like me!) and I started to say a prayer. A prayer that Heavenly Father would help me get along with Nic, and endure this sweet life we have together. And… I got the most distinct impression that Heavenly Father was maybe laughing at me. Which is the kind of relationship I want with my Heavenly Father because I myself am a little sarcastic. But, in my mind I got this thought like, girl you’ve got it good. And to look around and see the many failing marriages and heartache in the world it seemed fitting to chuckle at my prayer over cherries, or the garbage can. Whatever it was that day.


Nic and I constantly talk about being a team, and how when we work together things get done and achieved so much more successfully. I love that I have the chance to work on this team with my sweet Nic. To love him and support him in all that he does. And I’m so grateful for his support. I wish that we had the chance to reflect on the memory of our wedding day more often, because it really was so perfect and the feeling of love and commitment was so evident in everything that happened and the eternal covenant we made. Luckily on days when I feel like my life is just the pits I can look at these pictures, or into the eyes of my sweet Nic and realize that life isn’t so bad after all.
