It has certainly been a journey... war times to everyday life. My God the struggles have been worthy of a pat on the back.
I was out of milk the day of our anniversary and Adam had gone out for it early which was very sweet, he likes to sleep in, I opened the fridge to make my coffee and in front of the milk was a dozen pink roses and when I went for my cup, was my card from him.
This was my fantasy of what I wanted...its so sad we set ourselves up to be dissapointed in love many times and I was amazed my little fantasy actually came true.
I went to work....unusual for me, as I have been self employed for many years and have taken a job in mortgage banking in this unsure real estate market....learning again to grow my teeth and find a way back to my passion...real estate. I never did real estate to make money as much as I LOVED helping people, I was an expert, I did everything to be a servant to my client, I lived for it and in the end, I made a living for my family and enjoyed a fruitful life and many rewards.
When I finally came home, Adam and I recited our wedding vows in the same spot in our back yard, I cryed alot.
He has been hired as a county sheriff, or in other words...a cop. That will all start in two months.... hmmm. Not so different from being a military wife, except for the fact, I adore the military and fell in love with it... I am weird. (it was the soldiers and knowing their vulnerbility and hearts, that I fell in love with.) It all feels a bit familiar with cops and military and for me, its a comfort zone.
Life goes on, even in agegap relationships to make them very real. We are not so different than any relationship.
I guess at the end of the day its about two people making it work, loving each other enough to believe what they have is better than whatever the world has to offer.
I loved my three year anniversary, I loved it was my husband who is able today.... to give me his time, made the day special.
I wonder what tomorrow will bring as a cop's wife, but for today, on this three year anniversary, I have to say, my secret dreams were answered.
