Thank you God for day and night.

Have you ever wondered what life would be like we had 24 hours of total day or total night? Until tonight I hadn't either...don't worry!  When I thought about it, all of one and complete absence of the other would be unbearable.  As I consider the possibilities I was reminded of the beauty found in balance.

That's what Shawn is for me.  He is is the day to my night.  We are different sides of the same coin.  He is the counterweight that provides balance in our relationship.  I am the emotional one.  Love will conquer all so let's throw caution to the wind and go for it.  If it were up to me, we would probably have 100 kids by now and adopting five more!  Shawn on the other hand is very thoughtful and analytical.  He is slow to act because he is deeply reflective, and wants to have all the information and weigh all the possibilities .

There are times that it drives me absolutely crazy, but yet in hindsight, I can see how he has saved us from getting into things we may not have been ready for.  I see the beauty in  our balance, and not a day goes by that I am not thankful for him.  God definitely knew what hew as doing bringing us together.  He is a wonderful husband, and my best friend.  I love his kindness and generosity...not to mention the fact that he's a total stud!  There is not a single doubt in my mind that he will make the most AMAZING father ever.

Until then...

I am going to work on trusting and appreciating the balance that he brings to my life.

I love you Shawn.
