Celebrating 146 Months of Love

 

                This past Sunday was our 146^th monthiversary, and my favorite part about the day was that we were able to spend it together. It wasn’t an extravagant day. We didn’t go on a huge date. (Around here, most things shut down for Sunday, actually.) But we were together, and that’s the best.

                I had to be at church early for a meeting, and Ryan went with me to help. We went to Sunday School and church and then stayed after to talk with someone who needed a listening ear for an hour or so. I absolutely love it that even though Ryan isn’t on the staff with me, he jumps in to serve alongside me all the time. And that’s love.

                On our way home, he stopped to fill up the gas tank, so I’d be set for the week. And that’s love.

                We had leftover for lunch and then settled down to rest for the afternoon. Naps, reading, talking, Lexi snuggles, and Hallmark movies. And that’s love.

                I’d blocked off some time to make a Greek-inspired dinner for us, and it turned out pretty tasty. (Hopefully he would say that’s love!)

                It rained all day, so our hopes of taking Lexi for a walk were dashed. We miss sitting outside on our patio and taking boat rides at sunset. (We actually just miss sunsets, period!)

                But we were together to celebrate, and that made our hearts soar.

                Happy monthiversary, Ryan! Thanks for loving me well, every single day.
