The Most Wonderful Thing

"The most wonderful thing I decided to do was share my life and heart with you!"

This week, thanks to my mother-in-love, Chris and I had the rare (very rare these days!) opportunity to go on a date!! A real date! Just me and him! It was lovely. :) We decided to have some lead therapy and then good BBQ. But the absolute best part was just being together. Almost 15 years after our first date and it's still just as fun. It's still a treat to be together. The dates have changed a bit over the years. They have gone from doing whatever whenever to the very rare chance to enjoy a quick meal and check a few things off the to do list while we are kid free, but it's still just as enjoyable!

I have said it before, and I mean it every time...he is my rock. He is my strong half. He keeps me grounded and centered. I am so blessed he is mine! And I have no idea what life would be without him! We get each other. He understands me. We have grown up together. We make a good team. Yes. We have our days when we really don't like each other and things are a struggle, but we appreciate this life we have. We started life together young and it's amazing how we have grown and changed.

He is the most wonderful thing. And no matter how many years pass, I pray we always have time to be...just me and him! <3 So today, I take a minute to say thank you, Lord, for this wonderful man. Thank you for making him my life partner. Thank you for developing us and growing us closer together every single day. Thank you for making us one. I am thankful for our simplicity and deep love. 14 years down and forever to go.... <3
