I tend to think that I'm a pretty independent person. I am a bit of a control freak. Ask anyone I ever did a group project with at school... There are certain things I like certain ways, and up until the last year, my time was pretty much my own to do with as I pleased.
After Max was born, I was very dependent on Ryan. It just made such a difference to know that I didn't have to do everything on my own. Ryan was my partner. Then...time passed and I have become almost as independent as a mom as I tend to be in other areas. This is who I am...I think.
Then I have an experience like I did this morning. We have been on family vacation, and this morning Ryan headed back home to go back to work while Max and I go to visit family. I was a wreck. Apparently, I am much more dependent than I had previously realized. I guess I take my amazing husband for granted so often - the fact that he's there for me, the fact that he loves me, the fact that he puts our needs before his own. So, this morning has just reminded me how grateful I should be. Ryan, I love you...see you soon, but not soon enough.

Huh! you got that backwards. I'm sitting in the living room with no shirt on eating cereal for dinner wondering how I'm going to make it over the next few days.
