Me and J Tyler couldn't be more opposite when it comes to certain things...like music! I love country. He likes screamo. Can you really get much more opposite than that? Didn't think so. However, everytime we get in the car he says.."babe, put on your country!" Of course I always say thats okay. Because I like his music too. I can do screamo. (J Tyler used to be in a band. He used to scream in this said band. And he was really good, of course I am his biggest fan, therefore I like screamo too. Even if he's not doing the screaming...wow, that was a lot of blabbing. Let me get back to the point.) So usually we start off with some crazy, wild music that gets us pumped! He starts playing the air-drums and totally rocking out. I sing along and just enjoy watching him be so crazy. He L O V E S music. It's just a huge getaway for him. I completely understand. I blast music while cleaning, or studying, or just laying. It totally helps take me to another world, where I am with Brad Paisley. And he's serenading me with his sexy country voice. Okay, okay. So that doesn't happen that often....lucky me I've got my own little singing machine. J Tyler being in a band and all. He sings to me. Infact, on our big, beautiful, wonderful wedding day, he sang to me. A beauitful love song he wrote. And he often grabs the guitar and just jams away...sometimes singing songs that make hardly any sense. But I love it! Well enough about music.
Back to being opposites, I mean all you married people know that sometimes you just don't do things the same. It's definitely a learning process. Like, after dinnner I like to do the dishes right away, and then snuggle. He always wants to snuggle first. And when I try to do that...it's bad. Because then the whole time he's snuggling me. Saying cute married things and talking about how much he loves me and missed me today, I'm thinking about how badly I just want to do the dishes! Or he has this cute little habit of leaving bunched up napkins all around the house. Like the coffee table, the kitchen table, the dresser, the night stand, the counters in the bathroom, or the kitchen even sometimes the living room floor. And I must admit...at first I was like "uuurgh how I am I going to handle this." Then I realized, the least I could do is pick them up and just throw them away. He does work 40 hour weeks. And then he comes home and has to hear me complain about dumb paper towels? So dumb RIGHT?!
But let me tell you, I've learned to love all these crazy, silly, little things! Because really they are the big things. When I come home from work and find a crinkled paper towel on the coffee table or the toilet seat up, I know he's been home. And I can't help but smile. Being married to this amazing man has taught me so many great things..and it's only been 3 and a half months! I've learned patience, and understanding. I've learned appreciation at a WHOLE new level. I've learned to be appreciated. And to accept sweet gestures even if that means dinner every night, or clean dishes, a foot rub after a tremendously LONG day. I've learned its okay to be wrong. As long as I say sorry. And that we don't have to have the same opinion of things. But we can still support each other. I've learned the true meaning of sacrifice. Long nights of him singing hymns until I fall asleep. Or me tossing and turning to the wonderful sound of this vacuum like snores! I've learned sometimes I just have to huddle closer, and pull the blankets up to my nose..so he can run the fan on full blast all night long. I've learned that we don't have to have the same interests, always. We don't have to like the same music. We just have to compromise. We just have to give a little sometimes...he's really good at that. He always puts me first. And it is so great knowing, I don't have to do everything on my own. I've got a husband now. Someone that loves me unconditionally. And supports me even when he doesn't agree completely!
I am so blessed to have him, and to have learned all this in such a short time. I am so so so blessed to have eternity with this man. And to have 8734892734720489721048972304897240981270 years to learn so much more<3 Husbands are the greatest thing ever!
