Aarão and I celebrated our third anniversary yesterday with a relaxing time at the beach with the cousins and a quiet dinner together of delicious Brazilian food. Many people offered their pleasantries and good wishes for more happy years as a married couple. The most humorous comments were about having children. “It’s been three years already! It’s time for babies.” “Now, when will the babies come?”
I am not surprised by these comments. Aarão’s paternal grandmother birthed around 26 children. She for sure started before the ripe old age of 25!
I really don’t mind questions and comments about our lack of starting a little family. I enjoy talking about the prospect! I have many moments in the presence of sweet little ones where I gaze lovingly at my sweet husband and say, “oh, don’t you want one of those.” I don’t deny it! However, I am enjoying spending our time together. We are having fun and enjoying the early years of marriage getting to know one another better, going on little adventures, and dreaming about the future we have together. What does that future hold? It may include children, but it definitely includes each other.
