cutie from caddy

this is my wife



of course there are days when our marriage isn't sunshine and happiness. but really, ..who would want that every day in a marriage. isn't it really after those dark storms and all the turbulance that we really appreciate what we have? well, it is for me at least. i get soooo comfortable around rie that sometimes i take her for granted. sometimes i get mad at her, some of those times are her own doing but most of them are just me being a stupid boy.



every time we have a fight or something like it and i hurt her feelings, i feel like i have failed my job as a husband. and when i go to apologize i feel like this is what i deserve:















but rie seems to return with an even stronger love for me. that rubs off on me, and i am able to forgive myself long after she already has and move forward in our relationship.

so am i writing this because we had a fight or something?...no.

i'm writing this because i had to go into the bedroom to get something and she is in there sleeping, and when i see her face, at peace, innocent, helpless, .....it reminds me that i have been given alot in my life but nothing compares to the gift of this crazy girl from Cadillac that said yes five years ago.
