The Routine.

I know that most people assume that getting into a routine can be the death of a marriage. And maybe in some instances this might be the case. But speaking from my point of view, I can't wait to have a routine with my hubby!

To be able to come home from work at the end of each day to Aaron would be pure joy for me.

To be able to cook dinner together, cuddle up on the couch with a DVD, even just going to sleep every night with him lying next to me, seems so unattainable right now, and yet so appealing. I look forward to conversations of "we have this meal every week, can't we try something new?"

The main thing I look forward to when he comes home is being able to come home from work and have a conversation with somone about my day. Something so simple makes me so happy.

Most of all, I look forward to having a husband, one whose around all the time. So many people take their partners for granted, I see it every day in my colleagues and friends, and I can't imagine being in their shoes. I can't imagine being bored with a routine, or feeling dissattisfied in a relationship where you get to spend every night together. I appreciate Aaron so much, and every time I get to see him I get to re-discover my joy in my love for him and in our partnership.

I suppose, in some ways, I'm very, very lucky.
