Yesterday I drug myself out of bed much earlier than I had planned. I took a lighting speed shower and didn’t fix my hair. I did throw on a little makeup, but that was for everyone else’s sake.

Jake had to make a parts run to Wichita and asked if we wanted to go. I wanted to stay in bed and sleep in, but then I would have missed out on 3 hours of quality time with my husband. Farm wives take what they can get when it comes to spending time together. When the hours are long I take any opportunity I can to see him.

We didn’t have any deep conversations and mainly just listened to the radio, but we were together and it was nice. Times like these are some of my favorite times together. It’s easy at home to sit down, get lost in the tv, and then before you know it the night has flown by and you haven’t said more than a few sentences to each other. What makes it even better is that Jake is usually the one to suggest we tag along. I love that he loves me enough to put out the effort to spend time together. I’m a pretty lucky girl.
