Better than the best pair of jeans...

Do you have trouble finding jeans that fit, like I do? You shop and try on, finally decide on a pair that fits alright, only to have them stretch out too much, or shrink in the wash. Or you got them altered, but then they still look too short or too long...or now that they're altered, the proportions look off. Or they fit really well for about a year, but as your body changes, your jeans just can't keep up, and you have to start all over.

Imagine a pair of jeans that you put on and immediately you know, these fit. I mean, really fit. You can sit down, cross your legs, wear ballet flats, boots or flip flops. As your body changes, they seem to just adjust. You can wash them and they come out fitting just as well and even (is it possible?) better than before. And somehow after years of wearing these jeans, they're not threadbare, there are no holes, they still look great, in perfect condition.

I've been married for 10 years as of today. Before Adam, I had "tried on" other relationships, tried to make them fit. But when Adam and I got together, our relationship FIT. He fit me better than anything or anyone ever has. Being his wife feels so natural, so comfortable, yet so challenging (in a good way), and being his wife makes me so full of joy. Through the last ten years we have both changed, we have grown in some ways, and shrunk (?) in others. But we continue to fit.

The best part of our marriage is Adam. The best part of me is Adam.

I am so thankful that God put Adam in my life. I don't want to know where I would be without him.


Happy Anniversary Adam Navis, I love you so much!
