For some time now, K and I have been leaving notes for each other in the same word document on the computer every night for each of us to wake up or come home to or find. It is romantic, it is tender, it is intimate and it is organic. We are finding ourselves again, ...
It’s pretty sweet.
Now that we have downsized from a King bed to a Queen, my husband and I are so much closer. Literally and also in spirit. And this morning, I woke up early, looked over, and thought, "I get to sleep cuddled up next to the boy I have a crush on." And it brought me back to the ...
