After thirteen and half years of marriage, I am sitting here with butterflies in my stomach. I am so nervous about seeing MrPages again.
I feel like I’m on my first date with him again.
I fussed over my hair: three hairstyles, before I settled on one.
I fussed over my clothes, changing them twice.
I fussed over the house, cleaning everything I could.
Now I’m sitting here, not quite knowing what to do, my stomach fluttering away, my hands actually shaking…
My heart is like a singing bird
Whose nest is in a watered shoot;
My heart is like an apple-tree
Whose boughs are bent with thickest fruit;
My heart is like a rainbow shell
That paddles in a halcyon sea;
My heart is gladder than all these
Because my love is come to me.

Mon amour came home last Monday after three weeks of shifts away. He’s home for good, at least until next time… Anyway, Monday evening we were at a party and I grabbed a friend by the shoulders and declared only 4 1/2 hours!!! I am used to this lifestyle but that doesn’t mean I like it.
God is good and gracious. He uses this to help me trust him and rely on him. Believe me, I need to turn to him often, especially at night.
Have a blessed reunion. We’ll get together sometime, after your honeymoon’s over!!
Mr. and Mrs Trees
Looking forward to it!
