Today marks four months since Aaron and I got married. I texted Aaron happy 4 months to us! His response was "haha 4 months... we are babies". We definitely are babies in the marriage category, but everyday we are learning and growing just like babies do.
I'd say these past four months have been a 97% walk in the park. The other 3% has been filled with learning to combine our two very different upbringings, adjusting our spending habits, teaching housecleaning expectations, ascertaining each other's communications styles and sharing.
Although we don't agree on everything and have small arguments and different perspectives, the 97% park walking overshadows any doubt or fear. Times when we stay up late talking until 1 am- even when we have work early in the morning, or when almost every text we send that day says I love you, watching a reality tv series together each week while discussing the suspense and characters, surprise lunch dates, the feeling of not ever wanted to end a hugging embrace, going to the temple together, feeling butterflies while waiting for him to come home from work, seeing him sacrificing for me, vacationing together, watching him start a career he loves and just plain old spending time together. It's things like that that make me excited for eternity.
