I'm not going to go into all the nitty gritty details, but the second half of last year was pretty rough for Ben & I. Like, I didn't really think we were gonna make it. It was hard. But we made some serious changes & we have really turned our relationship around.
I know this is cliche, but I have never been happier. Honestly. And not just with our relationship, but in every aspect of my life.
I can't really explain it, but I just feel better. I'm happier, I feel less stressed, I'm living more in the moment & learning to really enjoy it for the precious gift that it is. I see so much more beauty in the day to day little things. I feel so honored & adored & loved by my Savior & Lord.
And Ben is pretty much the cutest, sweetest guy ever. Last week I got the flu & had to stay home from school & work for two days. Ben was sweet enough to stop at the grocery store after he got off work in the morning to bring me soup & orange juice (: And then the next days, which was Valentine's Day, he stopped at the store & bought be a huge bouquet of flowers, hand delivered with a letter (: (:
He treats me better than I ever thought possible. He's patient & kind & puts up with all my wild, crazy, unpredictable mood swings. He calms me down when I am upset, & he makes me smile when I am sad. This picture sums it up nicely:
That's really all I have to say for this post. But just to bring it to a close, I'm gonna share some pictures of my life in the last week.

My sister & I at a birthday party this weekend.
I mean honestly, look at that handsome face. How could I not be happy all the time?
I just love him. Lots.
Alright, I'm done now. Thanks for sticking through all the lovey-dovey stuff. You're a peach (:
Have a great week!
I look so much like my dad when he was my age.
