The Sunburned Spokane Sky
When Adam and I left for Florida one year ago, we were absolutely 100% ready to get out of Washington. Done with it and excited for our next adventure together. Our first year took us amazing places, with scenery unlike any I've ever experienced and people I am forever grateful for. Our marriage would have looked so different if we hadn't followed our calling to Florida, where we had nobody but each other and the Lord to depend on (initially). Fast forward 12 months (almost 13) and I'm back in my old stomping grounds, missing Adam more than ever, but truly seeing this city in a different light. If there were ever a way to describe the way my heart's been feeling lately, the sunset tonight painted it well. It's on fire in the most beautiful way. The romance I've rekindled for Spokane is something I never expected. I'd never really given my hometown much credit - I've always just wanted out of it - but after being here this past week, my mind's been changed. It's beautiful here. And I feel so blessed to be back. I've renewed so many old friendships and have begun the healing process within my family. It's truly been incredible. I can't wait to show Adam around the city I grew up in, in a way that I've never shown him before. With a restored outlook. What a gorgeous place to be.
He comes in tomorrow evening! We only have ONE MORE night to go! And after that, I'm planning to never have to Face Time Adam again for at least another 6 months. It's only fair. Two and a half weeks without my husband is the farthest from ideal. I didn't like it. Neither did he. I cannot wait!!!
