Simply Happy

I am openly happy with my life.  Other than the typical ups and downs my life is simple, and content.  My little family is made up of all boys, of course excluding me.  I am surrounded by boys, and really don't think I could handle it any other way.  Mud is a given, along with bugs, burps, and baseball.  The person that helps me with this simple little family, is of course my husband.  We have been together ten years, and married for seven and a half.  I honestly can not remember life without him.  Although he isn't perfect he is perfect for me.  The best way to describe him is a good ole country boy.  When we were dating, I asked if he was happy, and without hesitation he said he was content.  After a little explanation, I realized, this is a wonderful thing. 

 We are not a couple that spends all of our spare time together, or has to fill all of our time together with chatter.  There are many instances when we go several hours, and don't speak.  Simply because we are content enough in our relationship to enjoy just being.  

We enjoy our time apart, and treasure our time together.  There are often times, we can just look at each other and know what the other is thinking, or feeling.  We also know that the other doesn't have to go out of their way to impress the other. We can just be.  For that I am eternally grateful.  

I love my husband.  He is my soul mate, protector, and shoulder to cry on when life becomes too much.  He is a wonderful father, and just simply a great guy.  I am a lucky lucky girl.
