We’re home!!!

After a whirlwind few months that had us on the road 52 out of 75 days (just about 70%), we’re home for six. straight. weeks. Friends, we couldn’t be more excited. It’s been beyond a blessing to travel the world together and tour the country meeting photographers. Truly, in so many ways, it’s been life-changing and marriage strengthening, because it’s pushed us to our physical, emotional, and spiritual limits.

We’ve been sleep-deprived (a lot), sometimes only getting a few hours each night for days and days at a time, and that’s not always brought out the best in us. On the flip side, though, the stress and pressure made us stronger — so strong — as a couple, as a team, as one. It compelled us to be compassionate with each other, patient and kind. We had to lean on each other. We literally slept on each other on planes, trains, and buses. Even though we were both tired, one of us put the other’s needs first. Even though we were weary, one of us always picked the other up. We carried each other’s bags (okay, mostly Jordan carried the bags!). We picked up each other’s email slack. We did whatever we had to do to make sure the other one was okay. We encouraged each other more than normal, because we both needed it. Amy told Jordan she respected him, that she admired him, that he was making a difference in people’s lives. She told him it was all worth it. Jordan held Amy’s hand more than normal and wrapped her up tight. He gave her more hugs and forehead kisses. He told her he loved her. That she was beautiful, both inside and out. He reassured her when she cried — because when you’re not sleeping more than a few hours a night, much less in your own bed, and the work piles up in a tower that seems too steep to climb — the tears will (and did) come.

And in those moments, like yesterday morning’s in Dallas, in those quiet, dark, just us still up at 3:30 a.m. moments, when Amy did cry herself to sleep because we had to be awake again in just an hour to catch our flight, Jordan wrapped her up, helpless to fix anything but needing to do just that, we found out exactly who we really are, two people still, after all this time, so desperately in love with each other, that even when life pushes us to the edge, we pull together, push back, and fight forward.

We wouldn’t trade the last 75 days for anything in the world. Because we learned how to say “I’m sorry” faster, say “I love you” more, and hold on to each other longer. Because we’ve connected with friends new and old and created memories we’ll never forget. Because every time a photographer had an “ah-ha” moment, it made all the sleepless nights worth it. Because now, we are home.

The last few months have been a refining period, but now we need a refueling one. So, friends, for the next six weeks, as we’re spending our time with our brides and grooms, the photographers we coach, and creating some special projects that we’ll share with you as soon as we can, we’re going to also try to focus on rest. And really rest. We’re going to rest. To rest. To rest. We almost have to say it over and over again until it sticks. We’re going to clear the calendar like a forest, carve out days just for us, sleep in a little later, cuddle a little longer, wear pajamas around the house and not do our hair. Just be us. Two people who from the beginning have been and still are (now more than ever) deeply in love.
