Two months and one day into this deal


Yesterday we celebrated two months of being married. It's been quite a ride and hopefully the first two of at least 598 months! (We decided for the contract option of 50 years with renewal for another 50 years afterward if we haven't gotten tired of each other by then.)

And not only that, today marks a very special date for us, so it's a day to rejoice and consider the blessings we have received.

Our lives are both fuller and more challenging now that we are together. We are learning to leave behind the "I" and taking up the "we." Surprisingly, neither one of us has gotten sick of the other's presence even though we've been spending an incredible amount of time together.

As it turns out, the idea of Annika getting to know my family and my family getting to know Annika's has been for the best to forge a very strong base of understanding of where each one of us comes from. Well done Annika: you passed it with flying colors and without going crazy or telling me off!

In short: God's good, life's good, and the future looks promising and bright.
