- sometimes husbands have twice as much clothing/stuff as wives.
- sometimes husbands think dishwashers clean everything out of dishes so there's no need to scrub them at all.
- sometimes husbands & wives have different thoughts on what's important. (NBA games, movies, etc.) some things are serious matters... no joking should incur.
- the first year doesn't have to be incredibly hard, it could be FREAKIN' AWESOME.
- sometimes husbands already want babies even when they've only been married 2 months. wives have to be the rational beings in those instances.
- sometimes husbands are used to sleeping in their full size bed all alone & don't want to snuggle with wives ALLLL night...
- sometimes wives leave for work with the house looking great...but somehow every night when it's bedtime, the house is a wreck.
- marriage contains a lot of laughter.... especially if the husband is Garrett Day.
- sometimes wives feel like their life revolves around a sink full of dirty dishes.
- marriage is God's design & is: sanctifying, worth it, beautiful, rewarding, holy... the list goes on.
I'm sure more will follow.
these are just a few.
but one thing has stayed the same these last 65 days...
life is sweet when you're Garrett Day's.
I will greatly rejoice in the Lord,
my soul shall exult in my God,
for he has clothed me with the garments of salvation;
he has covered me with the robe of righteousness,
as a bridegroom decks himself like a priest with a beautiful headdress,
and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels.
For as the earth brings forth its sprouts,
and as a garden causes what is sown in it to sprout up,
so the Lord God will cause righteousness and praise
to sprout up before all the nations.
[Isaiah 61:10-11]
The dishwasher. Ohhh man yeah. Haha. And babies after two months of marriage...not such a bad thing ;-)
