If I had to do this life all over again, I’d still choose you. 💙

3️⃣2️⃣ years. That’s a whole lot of life together. 🙌🏽 A whole lot of memories. ✨ A whole lot of laughing, fussing, figuring life out, raising our family, getting on each other’s nerves 😂 and loving each other through all of it. ❤️

When I look at pictures and videos of us, I don’t just see what I lost. I see what I was blessed to have. 🙏🏽🌹

My baby. My hubster. My person. The man who knew me in ways nobody else ever will. 💯

And it’s funny how some of the things I miss the most are the regular things. The everyday moments that didn’t seem like anything special at the time. If I could go back, I’d probably pay a little more attention to those days. 🥰

We really were meant to be. And no matter how much time passes, I will always be grateful that GOD allowed me to do this thing called life with you. 🕊️💋💙

I miss you, my love. ❤️ And I’ll always be proud to have been your wife. 💋
We were meant to be. 🦋

The woman I am today is because of you. I love and miss you so much! 😘❤️

Such a cutie pie. She made my day.

Good morning my loves! ☀️💜

I’m choosing to start my day with a grateful heart, a positive attitude, and the expectation that something good can happen.

Whatever today brings, I’m going to make the best of it.

Speak something good over your day! 💜✨

#MorningAffirmations #SimplyBeingMonique by @simplybeingmonique

I used to think that once I made a decision, I had to stick with it. Even when it no longer made sense for me.

Not anymore.

Life has taught me that I can be sure about something today and feel completely different about it tomorrow. And I don’t have to turn that into a whole explanation for everybody.

Some things I wanted years ago don’t fit the woman I am today. Some things I thought I would never do, I’m actually considering now. That’s life.

I’m still learning myself and I imagine I always will be.

Have you ever changed your mind about something you once swore you’d never think differently about? 💜

Happy and blessed Monday my loves! 💜

Last week was a really good week for me and I'm still smiling about it. 😊

I've been working on several things, learning as I go, trying new ideas, making adjustments and finally starting to see some progress. Everything isn't where I want it to be just yet but I'm definitely not where I started.

And you know what made it even better? Our oldest daughter told me she was proud of me. ❤️

That meant so much to me. As parents, we're usually the ones encouraging our children, cheering them on and telling them how proud we are which they heard from us all the time. So hearing those words from our daughter was a special moment for me.

I'm grateful for the progress, the lessons and the encouragement along the way. Most of all, I'm thankful to GOD for continuing to give me the strength, wisdom and opportunity to keep moving forward. 🙏🏽

I'm looking forward to seeing what this week brings. I have some things I'm still working on and I'm enjoying the process.

Wishing everybody a wonderful and productive week! 💜

Oh, so everybody’s supposed to show up for YOU, but when it’s somebody else’s turn, you’re nowhere to be found? Interesting! 😂👀

Baby, when I tell y’all I miss this man. I MISS MY HUSBAND! 🥹❤️ Some days I just wish I could sit next to him again, laugh about absolutely nothing, get on his nerves one more time or just hear him call my name. It’s the little things that you don’t realize are so big until they’re just memories. 🕊️

32 years together and I still wouldn’t trade what we had for anything. We lived, we laughed, we fussed, we made memories and most importantly, we loved each other through it all.

Being able to recreate moments of us together makes my heart smile. No, it’s not the same as having him here, but for a few seconds, I get to see us together again. And sometimes, those few seconds mean more than I can put into words. 💙

One thing about me, I’m ALWAYS going to love and honor my husband. That will never change.

Forever Mrs. Hunt. 💍❤️🦋

Somewhere in my house is a whole store of things I bought twice.

Please tell me I’m not alone. 😂

Family group chats really need a customer service department. 😂

Who’s the one in YOUR family that starts the confusion?
