Word for word texts between Jason and me this morning while he's at the office:
Me: I keep thinking about my bad dream and I'm feeling way depressed. I've been totally tearing up about it. Not kidding! People leave their spouses all the time and marry someone else! That's a reality in peoples' lives! Promise that would never happen to us. Promise you'll never want to be with another single soul.
Much anticipated expectation:
Jason: My sweet Mer, how could you even allow yourself to entertain those thoughts?? It's just ridiculous! You are the absolute epitome of everything I've ever wanted or will ever want. You are all ANY man could ever want. I wish I were there right now to hold you and tell you how much I love you and that there will never ever be another woman on earth who could ever compare to you in any way. Sometimes I just lay in bed and watch you sleep, and you're just so darn adorable when you sleep. Especially when you're heavy with child, our child, our miracle; pillow stuffed under your belly and in between your legs and every other crevice possible. And for some reason you're more prone to drool when you're pregnant. And it is just SO. STINKIN. CUTE!!! I mean talk about CUTE! It all makes me love you just that much more. (You are simply stunning when pregnant, and all the extra pounds you put on all over your body just drive me so crazy!! I just love having more of you to love!!!) So while I'm laying there I think to myself, "How did I ever get so lucky? I am the luckiest man who's ever lived." And I have to pinch myself right then and there! And I really do it! I pinch myself honey!! (It's kinda embarassing so don't tell anyone, but I'll show you the pinch marks on my arms! So silly!!) To make sure I'm not dreaming and living the life of some other unbelievable man who's stumbled across the greatest fortune in the universe. But I'm not dreaming. And it's all because of you. Every wish I've ever had in life, you have made and continue to make a reality for me every single day.
Reality:
Jason: Ok I promise.
I stared blankly at my phone for no less than 37 seconds.
Okay. Phew. That was easy! I can go on with my day now! I don't have to be mopey and dramatic because I dreamt Jason ran away with another woman! So silly! I don't have to care because he told me he was happier than he'd ever been in his life with her!! I don't have to be sad because he told me our Lucy was going to be the flower girl at their beach wedding! Or when he said that he knew it was kinda hard for me but be still really wanted me at the wedding because he wanted to stay friends! What a hoot! I could tell at the record pace at which he responded, that there was a lot of thought put into his text. There was a lot of sincere emotion behind it. And just like that, with just three little words I'm the queen of the world again. And here I was feeling sad about it. Here I was letting those hormones get the best of me. Silly, silly me.
*Forgive the repeated mention of my dreams the last several months. They are running my life right now.*

Meradith you are so cute! Don't worry we all have those dreams! At first I was impressed that Jason would respond with such a lengthy text while at work..then I continued reading and realized Jason is as normal as the rest of our husbands!
ok...now when are we going to get together?
ok I totally dream every time I am pregnant that eric leaves me, one time it was for my cousin who had well.... bigger boobs, and that was his reason for leaving. I hate those dreams!
Don't you hate pregnancy dreams?!?! They're the worst! If only husbands would answer all questions like your anticipated response:)
Hahaha!!! Glad you aren't the only wife who anticipates such a sweet text back! I'm lucky to get a response sometimes ;) You're too funny!
So funny and so true about the women and the men. I can't wait to see what this little girl looks like! Lucy is so darling...and you are, in fact, a beautiful preggie. That is RARE.
HA! Gotta love those prego dreams!
I laugh, but only because I understand.
That was awesome! You made my night!
Ha ha ha! I have those too ... I decided that it was God's way of reminding me how much I love my "real" life and the contentment that my marriage has given me:-) It really makes me appreciate real life after having one of those awful dreams!
Mera-
I have had those dreams and they stink. I am a mix between a insecure mess and a irked out wife. So that basically means Q gets whacked after he reassures me of his love. Haha! JK. But I have to say I did feel a little relieved knowing that original response was not really how it went down. I was like "dang this boy has some textin time on his hands" hahaha!! PS- Like Vanessa I am beside myself with jealousy over the recent reunion and am insisting that it be made up to me in some way :) Love you guys sooooo much!!
Not to be rude but when I was reading the text back I was like seriously Jason I knew you were a softie but you need to STOP right now! hahahaaha and then all the pounds you've been putting on that was really funny Mer.
Hey I'm really missing you. When will I see you again? Come visit me...and then I will come visit you when you have your baby and mine is a little bigger. Love you.
Mer, you never disappoint!!! I love you!
Meda, I miff you meda! Please come out her right now. I will plan my AZ trip around you. I need to see you again before your bebe comes. And I really miss my sistow.
And I ALWAYS send you nice texts. Just like the imaginary one you posted. Not like your stinky, slimey, heartless husband.
Oh Yason! I didn't mean it!
Oh, and P.S. I had never seen that picture of you and Jason kissing behind little Doof Coupe from your last family photo shoot until just now in your slide show! So freaking cute!
Stop hoarding secret precious family photos you witch!
