Tuesday nights are movie nights at our place. Last night we watched “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.” It was a beautiful reminder of the sanctity of life and of the beauty of love and relationships. As the movie ended I found myself thinking about my love for Tom, so strong, deep, and constant. Tears filled by eyes and I began to cry as the reality of the imminent change hit me harder than it has before. These past three and a half years have been so beautiful, so ideal. I’m so often in awe of how wonderful our marriage is and how perfect our friendship. Our Valentine’s day celebration has seemingly filled the entire month thus far, as night after night we have savored our time together. We are both incredibly in love with our son, and I know that our mutual love for him will only strengthen our love for one another. But I am also aware that often children can test a couple’s devotion to one another. As I wept, thinking, I don’t want the way I feel to ever change, a comforting thought filled my mind. It will change. It will grow. It will deepen. It will mature into something even more beautiful.
