My Joshua Tree

The past couple days I have been extra whiney.  I caught a cold and with a stuffiness that seemed to want to deliver me constant head aches I suppose I felt as though it were time the world take care of me.  Though my darling husband Joshua kept reminding me I was being of the whiney nature he still fulfilled all my requests.

Laying here in bed and thinking over the last couple days I can’t help but be very thankful for the blessing that is my Joshua.  I looked at his big blue eyes and wondered what on earth I had done to deserve him as a best friend?

We are not the most popular kids in town and are always looking to make new friends but it seems to only a few out there are true kindred spirits.  Amazingly enough we are completely content with just having each other.  We fit like a glove.  He is shy, quiet and a bit awkward meeting new people while when I am nervous and meet new people I become a motor mouth.  We balance each other.  We get each other’s humor when some may not.  Our love continues strong for each other when we are not at our best, like oh say a cold makes us whiney and needy.  We are us and thats more than enough.  We are happy to be boring, happy to be here in our simple and boring lives with our three amazing children.

Thank you to my Joshua Tree for providing this family with your strong roots.  When it seems like I do nothing right you make me feel absolutely perfect.
