It's been over 1 year!!

Its been over a year since we got married. We as a couple have had a multitude of adventures.

We have moved 2x, changed jobs, and made some decisions. I added a new kind of position as of September 1st this year.

You have been great about rolling with the punches.
Today you aren't here, you are traveling for work. It's weird, I have been home a week after being gone for 13 days and now you are gone for the week.Its a great opportunity for you and I am excited.

Someday the hope is to move to KY or somewhere outside of Illinois, as much as there are some ties in IL, there are plenty of opportunities at other locations. For this season of our lives we are in IL, however, there is a possibility of the season changing rapidly after Feb of 2019.

One of the oddest discussion we have had to date is about children. We have agreed that unless the good Lord laughs at us we are not having biological children. Now in the future, someday we may consider adoption if we felt led, but it was nice to have a clear conversation and not have that on the table.

I know some people are shocked when they hear us talking about not having kids, but you deal with them with so much more grace than I do. I can deal with it, but you just are calm and collected and polite, sometimes I get annoyed with people asking when are we having kids.

An explanation

Hi Everyone ,

So I had this idea, I met a wonderful Godly man that I believe is the one that God has chosen for me. I am writing this blog as a series of posts that will all go active at some point in the future as a gift. He has no idea that I am writing this, and so I want to keep it a secret, but at the same time document some of the thoughts for him that run through my head at warp speed.

He is 30, and is a mature Christian. He makes me feel safe and loved.
He is:
protective
respectful
mature
motivated
a trekki
smart- and knows I am smart too
supportive
respects my boundaries
funny
full of puns
sarcastic
makes me laugh...

and from day one has been honest with me about his intentions. He believes that I am the woman that God chose for him, and we have been very clear about the hoped outcome. The plan currently is to take our time, but it feels like this is what God wants.
