I miss him.
I know he is coming home soon, as a matter of fact, I’m picking him up at the airport, but I miss my best friend.
I don’t sleep that well and become more of a night owl while he is gone.
I check my phone every five minutes for a text message, a call, something, though I know with his work, that’s not possible.
I mope, the kids and I play and I make chocolate cake with too rich, chocolate frosting to deal with him not being gone.
That and I don’t have to share the cake with him, but don’t tell him that; He thinks I just make it for comfort…I do.
It’s comfort food; Comfort I don’t have to share it, muhahahhaha; Okay, I do share it with the kids and when he gets back,but while he’s gone, it’s all mine.
Sigh.
I miss him.
I know he knows and I try not to let him know that I know that he knows.
Meanwhile, I count down the hours to when I get to pick him up from the airport today….Cake at home waiting for him, although missing a few slices and has a few finger smudges in it.
Thank you Heavenly Father for my best friend, my husband.
We have our differences but we have our similarities which makes it all the richer and scarier our relationship.
He is the only person who knows what I’m thinking or feeling and still asks anyway.
He can finish a thought or sentence and have that “Did I just do that look?”
He’s not perfect and I love him all the more for that, because I’m not perfect and he loves me.
He loves our Heavenly Father and I share that love for Our Heavenly Father though it wasn’t always a perfect ride, but I thank God, I rode that ride with him and our Heavenly Father.
He is still growing and so am I.
My knees are still worn from still praying for and with him and I gladly still do it.
Yes, I’m being so sugary that your blood sugar and maybe, yuck, level is probably rising and you want him to hurry up home so I would just stop, but I miss him.
Did I tell you I miss him and that he’ll be home soon and I love him and oh , I’m going to have to share the chocolate cake with him won’t I?

Kym,
God bless you and your husband and thank you so much for what he has done. It is hard when your best friend and the one you love is away and it makes the reunion so much sweeter.
It’s definitely a reminder that though our Heavenly Father is “away” when we see Him again, the joy of the reunion it will be.
He is far but never far, but in the heart and embracing our soul. Praise our Heavenly Father!

How sweet! Okay, bad choice of words given the chocolate cake (hand it over!) but seriously, your love for him is so evident in this post. It makes my heart sing to know that another has this same love that I have for my own husband. Don’t you wish everyone could experience such a feeling?

Hahahha…uhm…about the chocolate cake…well…fixing to share a post about that in a few…Lol.
I, by no means, have the perfect marriage, will ever have the perfect marriage, or want to have the perfect marriage, because I don’t think I would have both the faith in our Heavenly Father, the appreciation for my hubby, and just the lessons I have had to learn and continue to learn about myself, if it was any other way…It’s definitely taken a lot of prayers, hope and faith in our Heavenly Father and it’s a humbling reminder that our Father must feel the same way for us.

This was perfect. Such a precious way to express your love and emotions for your honey. My spam words were “Don’t give up.” It wouldn’t work, so now I’m trying again. LOL. I didn’t give up. I know you won’t either! Happy WFW!
