Atypical

Kris and I don't recall when and where we met. We do know it was fifteen years ago yesterday that we began the wedded portion of our lives together. And yes, we do know unequivocally that we will be together for the rest of our time here on earth. After that, she's God's problem.
Its not really possible to describe the depth of our relationship in a blog post. It's not even possible to describe just the past fifteen years. What I can tell you is where we have found peace and what we aspire to for our family.
We wish to be atypical.
We want the difficult discussions. We do not fear the hard times. We do not guard our souls or bodies so much we inhibit growth. We thrive where others fear to look.
These statements are not made to be boastful. This is a testament to where we have found success to be, and what has proved useful for our lives.

Today we spent the day together. Out on the road enjoying one another's company. It was not much different than the dates we had all those years ago. Lots of laughs, lots of good food, and lots of learning. Learning about what interests one another. In so doing, we learn more about one another and this marvelous friendship is fed and nourished for the journey ahead.

I love being atypical with you....it's way more fun than being like everyone else.
