That above wreath was a major point of contention in our marriage yesterday… It went a little like this:
Me: (I decided I wanted to buy a stick of leaves to make into a monogram for our door.) I formed the stick into an “L” the best I could and asked Husband what he thought.
Husband: “What, is that a J? That doesn’t look like an L. I don’t really it.”
Me: Angry and emotional. Over a stick of leaves…
Husband: Suggests buying a wooden monogram online to attach to a wreath.
Me: Stormed out of the store, with Husband close behind. But the stick of leaves came home with us and ta-da!
Looking back, I know I could’ve taken a deep breath, acted like an adult and discuss it rather than get all pissy and walk away. I’m human, though, and I’m an emotional person.
And I’m doing the best I can at this whole marriage thing. There really isn’t a handbook on how to be married. We’re learning and doing it as we go. Laughing, crying, arguing, making up–but most importantly loving– along the way.
This totally sounds like us, too!
Oh yeah been there done that too! It happens.
