My Real Diary

January 26

     I am officially a married woman, as of 2 days ago, and I could not be happier! It makes me so proud seeing how far Jack and I have come and how everything is falling into place. Great things are coming our way and it is amazing. We had a lovely little ceremony in the woods under this beautiful tree that curves like a natural arch. I've always wanted to get married there, and I did! At first, our dog was the ring bearer. We actually had the ceremony twice because just as we exchanged rings for the first time, more of Jack's friends showed up, so Sunny got to be the ring bearer the second time. I was such an amazing fucking day. Jack and I love each other so much and I'm so glad we're fixing our problems and focusing on making the future bright. Although, sadly, Jack had to leave for work at 7pm today. He unexpectedly got called to go to another state and hour and a half away and got a motel so he can work at 6am. I miss my husband. My HUSBAND I love saying that! I wish he could be here tonight but I will see him early and probably not too late either. I can't wait. Tomorrow I have to bring the marriage license to the courthouse to get a new certificate and I'm gonna see my mom for a little bit, and hopefully he'll be done around the same time I am and I can hug and kiss him. It's so weird. It's like nothing has changed yet, but so much has. We're not boyfriend and girlfriend who call each other husband and wife like we used to. Now when he says his wife, he really means his wife. And I mean husband. We now have this bond that we somehow didn't have before. I can already see him taking things more seriously. I didn't want him to leave for work tonight but he manned up and decided he had to for his family. I surprisingly, because of all my trust issues, have full trust in him. He's staying at a motel tonight in a different state and before, I would've been a little worried he might do something he shouldn't. But he's not. He's fast asleep, ready to get up early and work for his family. Everything feels better. More secure. More happy. Especially because I know some people think we did this because we have a baby together, but we didn't. It's because we love each other and devote ourselves completely to each other. We are focused on growing and thriving together. I could not be happier to be married to this man, to have his last name, to call myself his wife. I cannot wait to see what blessings our wonderful future has prepared for us and our little family. I feel so warm and my heart is full. Anyone who reads this, please wish us the best! I added a picture of our rings on our fingers too ❤️😊
