Another example

It may be a bit boring to you readers, and I don't mean to seem like I'm bragging, but I have another example of how considerate we are in our marriage. This is like my journal, afterall.

Last Sunday we were at Bryan's Mom's house for dinner and his sister, Kimmy, who is quite a baker, made chocolate chip cookies. Our nephew, Ty, was walking around with a plate of cookies, serving the grown-ups. (One thing I can't wait to have kids for!) There was one cookie left when Ty got to me. Bryan was is the adjoining room, so I knew he hadn't gotten one, so I told Ty to take it to Bryan, which he did. I could hear Bryan's response when Ty reached him: "Has Candace gotten one yet?" I leaned over to where he could see me and told him, "I just sent him to you!" I do feel so very lucky and blessed to have such a sweet husband! He did take the cookie, BTW. But that's okay because I don't like chocolate AT ALL when I'm pregnant. Weird.

Consider This

One of my most favorite things about being married to Bryan is how considerate we are of each other. We both agree that we were missing it in our first marriages, and maybe that's why we both try especially hard to be considerate. Or maybe we just naturally are and make a great couple.

The other day, we were both in the kitchen, putting things away and getting things out. He needed to put something in the fridge at just about the same time I needed to get something out of the freezer. We turned around and I opened the fridge (for him) and right afterward he opened the freezer (for me). He realized what I did and asked, "Did you open the fridge for me?" and I said "Yes." He laughed and said, "I opened the freezer for you!" It was just a very sweet moment that showed how much we think of each other first, before ourselves. It's such a nicer way to live.
