Two years? Wow...

Well, today is our second wedding anniversary. I'm honestly glad to say that it hasn't been easy, but it's been a partnership in progress. There were times that we were absolutely miserable and staring at each other like we were total strangers. However, I always make it top priority to make sure neither went to sleep mad at each other. It seems to do the trick. Every night, we talk through what's been bothering us about the day. It smooths things over so I don't sit up at night wondering what's wrong.

One of the downsides of marrying later in life is that we're a bit jaded. The last two years have been reteaching ourselves and each other to stop reacting as if we're still in the relationships that didn't work. This has not been easy because we've had some doozy exes, but it's worth it to look to the other side of the couch and know my decision was a wise one.

At least we're comfortable enough with each other that we went out for Mexican food and didn't hold back on eating the beans.
