~Perfect~

After having a long battle with sickness in our home, I started to feel less on top of things than usual. I was pretty down on myself yesterday and shared my lament with my sweet husband who so PERFECTLY listened and waited for the right moment to respond. I told him that for the first time in my life I have felt like I've lost my "EDGE!" I used to be soooo on top of things, super sharp and with it! I embraced my LONG to-do-lists and completed most tasks with ease and not much thought! I mutli-tasked like crazy and it didn't even phase me! I welcomed a good challenge and loved the victory! Now,...not so much. Now,....I pray that life will stay simple and I can just make it! I reminded him of how I was when he met me,.. I considered myself at the top of my game! And.....this is what he said to me!

"Brigette, you were never perfect! I was just perfectly in love with YOU!"

Thank heavens I have a husband who loves me no matter what stage of life I am in! He said the perfect thing,...right when I needed it!

  1. What a sweet husband and what a perfect thing to say (though I have to say I think you are as close to perfect as a person can get). I am sorry that life hasn't been going as smoothly as it has in the past. I hope you know that I am always here if you need anything at all! :)
