Is your Marriage Fireproof?

We finally sat down last week, and watched the movie, Fireproof. Ok, yeah, I admit we are really, really behind on watching movies, but Lily is a very attention-demanding child and we like it that way so usually all of our spare time is spent playing with her. She is just getting to like to watch tv, a good thing and a bad thing, really.., but back to Fireproof.

I knew it was going to be a good movie, and I guess I had been putting it off because I knew I was probably going to see parts of myself in it.

I really enjoyed it and it made me so emotional. I definitely saw plenty of myself. BJ and I are very happily married, don't get me wrong at all, but we are not perfect.

I tend to not say thank-you enough or let him know how much I appreciate the things he does for us. He is a great husband and sometimes, I tend to be the normal wife and nag him or complain about things, and he rarely, rarely ever does this to me.

We are both Christians and that helps us through a lot of times. I think that this helps us daily in our marriage to be stronger.

Watching this movie helped me to realize how blessed I am that I have him, and it re-affirmed the fact that we are in this til death do us part and maybe sometimes I do need to show him more how special he is. We only have one life to live and we need to make this one special.

I definitely recommend watching it (if you haven't already, since we are so behind) with your spouse or significant other and taking more time for each other.

I hope that everyone has a great weekend. :)
