Today, I was reflecting on how I have changed since I met Jim. In knowing him and falling in love with him I know that I am a different person. I can't think of a way that I changed that has not been for the better. For instance, since I met Jim, I have softened considerably. I used to refer to myself as a robot, and no one was ever going to get emotions out of me. Jim has changed all that. I have gone from a robot to someone who is not afraid to share their feelings. I think I have become a better friend, a better Pastoral Minister and an all around better person because of him.
There is not a day that goes by that I don't thank God for him and all that he has done for me. He has helped me grow closer to God, he has helped me to know what real self-sacrificing love is all about and he has become my best friend. I don't know where I would be without him. Also, he makes me laugh so much everyday! I have never laughed harder with anyone!
As our wedding approaches we are both just so anxious to be together. Every night Jim says something along the lines of "I am sick of talking about our future. I just want to start living our future." (NOW...who would have thought those words would have come out of his mouth a year ago! ;) ) As we reflected on our time together at Disney, we know what a great team we make and much we are ready to start this amazing journey.
Now are we perfect people? No. My nephews will tell you I am "messy" and Jim's family may say the same about him. But we can no doubt overlook our imperfections to start an amazing new phase in our relationship as husband and wife. Well, maybe not all our imperfections. We have to do something about all the X-box playing.... ;)
