"I have found the one whom my soul loves."



Can we just take a minute to talk about how wonderfully amazing this guy is? 
Wow, I am so blessed that God picked me to be his wife. 

I don't even know where to begin describing how much this man rocks my world. 
I mean, he still gives me butterflies just by holding my hand, I love that! 

When I first met him, I knew that there was something special about this guy - his heart was  on fire for the Lord and he wasn't afraid to share it.  He also wasn't afraid to make fun of me which was a plus is my book (if you know me, you have to have a sense of humor to get along with me...no duds allowed!)
I couldn't wait for the next time that I would get to see him and spend time with him - I cherished every minute (and still do!)
I remember after we got engaged I would cry to my mom, "I just want to get married at the courthouse! I don't care about a wedding, I just want to marry Will!" (dramatic? yes...but I couldn't wait to be his wife!) 


(See, I was really excited to marry him)


Here are just a few things I love about Will:

  • His kindness, sensitivity and huge heart give me the inspiration to strive to be better - this guy will give you the shirt off his back if he knew that you needed it. His willingness to help others never ceases to amaze me.
  • Every Saturday morning he goes to our favorite bakery and gets me donuts ("Candice, this seems so petty", you might say, but NO, no it is not...donuts make me very happy, especially donuts delivered by my husband)
  • He has an amazing work ethic - He is one of the hardest workers I know and always strives to do his best.  Which also goes hand in hand with the amazing discipline this guys has - I could use some of that! 
  • When I am sad he holds me and tells me that it IS going to be okay.  He reminds me that we are always in this together and that the Lord has perfect timing for everything.
  • He prays with me.
  • He's super attractive (duh.)
  • He always makes me feel beautiful.
  • He thinks I am funny - which is great because I can't be the only person who laughs at my own stories...or blonde moments. 
  • I think HE is funny - I love that we can laugh together! In fact, I think it's key in any relationship to be able to laugh together!
  • He's super smart- I mean, this guy is a wealth of knowledge! I still don't know how he knows all this stuff, but it comes in handy very often.  You know what this means?...our kids will now stand a chance in math class!
  • He is laid back, which in turn helps me out when I am not in a very "laid back" mind frame.  He balances me out so greatly (thanks, Lord!)
  • He loves me unconditionally - throughout my mood swings and melt-downs from all of the "drugs" and treatments, throughout my good days and bad, he takes care of me when I am sick, in fact, he finds joy in being able to care for me! He accepts my short-comings and helps me to be a better person, and for that I feel like the most blessed woman alive.  
I could go on and on, in fact my mind is still racing from all the things I could say, and I still don't feel like I am even doing him justice in all of this!

But I will end it for now by saying this,
He is my best friend, my "earthly rock", and he fills my heart with love.  
I love you Will, and there is not a day that goes by that I don't thank God for bringing you to me.

One of "those"days.

Have you ever had one of "those days"?   We all have. If you say haven't, you're lying, and lying isn't cool.  Being on Clomid can induce "those days" a lot more often (for those of you who don't know what Clomid is - it is a fertility drug...pills, hormones, ovaries, eggs, etc - you get the point.) Anyway, I thought I would illustrate what one of these days can look like...while most are not as dramatic as this one - I just wanted to get the point across. I may or may not have had a day like the one illustrated below... It starts out all fine and dandy. Although you feel like there may be something lurking in the corner of your subconscious, you ignore it and begin your day. The world is your oyster. Life is great!  Then...something happens. It can be big, it can be small. Maybe it is an annoying co-worker who likes to chew loudly in your presence, maybe a grumpy client you have to deal with, perhaps a bad hair day...wh

Change.

I had a doctor appointment earlier this week to sit down with my doctor and re-assess our "situation".  I left feeling hopeful and encouraged, but also nervous.  We are changing a few things here and there about what we are doing, and change always makes me a bit anxious. You know what else makes me nervous...side effects.  I really have been trying to laugh them off.  I mean, I can usually tell when I am over-reacting to something or being irrational from these meds - like when I spill half the mac n' cheese in the sink while draining the water and almost have a complete meltdown, until Will laughs and says "it's just mac n' cheese hun, it's not the end of the world!" (For those of you who haven't met Will, he is pretty much super amazing...and hott).  Or when I want to punch someone in the face just for breathing too loudly...no worries, I have never physically harmed anyone...just in my head.  Some days  are easier to laugh it off tha

Dance in the Rain.

Sometimes I am surprised by how strong God thinks I am.  Sometimes I  think that He is mistaken...but He is never mistaken.  He has a plan.   Clearly not the same plan as I had, but a better one - I am sure. Sometimes I feel like I'm in the middle of a TV show...maybe a comedy,  sometimes a drama (I watch a lot of TV).  Usually it's like a comedy, in the sense that  every time I turn around someone is telling me that they are pregnant  or "going off their pill but not trying yet", which only means it's a  matter of time before they too are telling me that they are expecting.  (Let's be honest ladies, as soon as we go off that pill the timeline  gets moved up.)  I hear these words and suddenly the sound of the "Debbie Downer" skit  from SNL comes on "Wah Waaaah" and I want to look up at the sky and  say "Really, God, another one?! Can't I keep ONE friend around that  isn't thinking of having kids right now? I could use a buddy
