[Tariq] I really despise the irony of me saying in our September post that I’ll make another post in a week, only to forget and completely skip over October together and end up once again coupling two months into one post. C’est la vie. As you can imagine from the double post, we have been crazy busy recently. A lot of hanging out with friends and family which has been so fun. There’s something enriching about spending time with people you care about. Me and Jada: we evolve, beyond the couple we were a minute before. Little by little, we advance with each turn. That’s how a drill works! I’m going to stop myself before I start making more anime quotes, but that’s how it feels. And I’m going to hazard a guess that it’ll keep feeling that way. If I treasure her like she’s my wife and water her like beautiful flower a lot else will fall into place.
[Jada] 10 and 11 months of marriage have treated us so kindly. Not that it’s been without its difficulties but because it has brought out so much good and strength in us. I feel like every month we get closer and we face something big or small that brings us closer and gives us the opportunity to have open and meaningful conversations to continue to connect and grow. Life never fails to be challenging but my Husband is not a part of the challenge he is always there to say the right thing, share the right scripture and offer me the support I need. I love him endlessly.
[Tariq] This is important for you dear readers: The next post you’ll read will be our one year update!! Because of this, the updates will slow down from there. And this was always the plan, month by month updates until the first year is down, and then somewhere between 3 – 6 months for all subsequent updates. They don’t have to be at regular intervals but I at least want to have a view posts per year, or more if any exciting news happens. Not to flex, but I think our marriage is probably in the top ten of the US. I challenge you to out-love your spouse. See you next month!
