cheers to a new year

i've always been one to make new years resolutions. i love pulling out the old ones and seeing what i accomplished. this year will be different. a whole new kind of goal, to bring happiness and comfort into my marriage.

i pray that this time next year will be so different. i will look back at all i accomplished and i will be so grateful to have not given up.

i have a feeling this weekend will be alright. my sister is in town. she has always been a mood boost for him. she's here for the celebrations and he couldn't be more excited. they have a special bond, those two. i am grateful for her love for him. and for the strength she gives me to keep being strong.

when he is happy, we are happy. he is loving, he is gentle, he is optimistic. he is a good good man, a hard worker, the most honest man i've ever known. that is the man i married. he'll come back to me fully one day.
