A Mother, A Wife

I made a very crucial mistake a few nights ago. My husband and I were going over our holiday plans and I have been adamant about giving our son an advance birthday celebration with his classmates. He wants it celebrated in school. I want it at home. He has his reasons and I have mine. But the date that I chose fell on our date day. You see, I forgot that part, besides being a mother I'm also a wife. After that realization I made effort to reach out and show my love to my husband. Despite being a morning person I really try to be still awake until 10 in the evening so we can talk and not crave in to the calling of the bed.

Whoever says marriage is easy is living in a perfect world. Marriage takes effort, trust and love. I am grateful that my husband is understanding. There had been times when we'd argue but the distance helps. Instead of fighting during the little time we have, we'd rather sort our differences and make up. It helps too when you have a son who cares. He doesn't know it yet, but he's the reason why sometimes we'll just end up laughing instead of letting anger take over us.
