Words of Affirmation:

I've been really thinking about words of affirmation and how powerful they are to me. I'm not talking about a compliment like, "your cute." I'm talking about something deeper for example, "I care about you" or "I'm grateful to have meant you." Something about these affirmations and many others like it, really touch my heart, especially when that someone means it. I also love feeling appreciated and to know that I'm doing a great job in life.

My husband came home the other day and told me things like this but the one that meant the most is, "Your a wonderful wife and mother, and your doing a amazing job at it and I appreciate all you do." To hear those words from him, just made my day. I know he appreciates everything I do, but sometimes I need to hear it out loud. I appreciate him telling me that.
 I think telling someone you care about them or how grateful you are for them, goes a long way. I challenge you to say something sweet and dear to someone very special to you and mean it. You never know how it can change their day!

Me and my husband have gone through a lot of hard things these past couple of weeks. But I'm so glad I have him to lean on. I'm glad we are going through it together and growing from each other. I couldn't have asked for a better husband. He is my best friend, my strengthen and my love. I can count on him for anything. As we go through this hard time and (more to come) we are growing, learning and relying on each other and most importantly relying on our Heavenly Father to help us get through this.
