Anniversary

I wish I was as diligent about writing as I should be.  Sometimes I get so caught up in my own head that I actually forget to put my ideas in writing.  Such is the case once again.  I meant to put up a big post before our anniversary.  I was planning to post something before and after the big day.  Instead I planned it all out in my head and left it there.

It has been almost a month and although it is quite late, I have to post at least a bit about our anniversary.


My gorgeous wife and I have been married for 13 years now.  We have had some tremendous ups and some unfortunate downs.  Through it all we have remained faithful to the covenant we made on that night where this journey all started.  It is not always easy, but it is always worth it.

Our anniversary night was awesome.  We had a great date and dinner.  Thanks to my friend who got us a great table at Dianne's on Devine.  The food was fantastic.  The service was outstanding.  The dessert was worth all five pounds that it caused me to put on.  The conversation was delightful.  It was so nice to talk, catch up, reminisce, and recap the year.  It was also nice to understand the challenges we faced and how we can grow from those challenges to make this marriage even better.  

I am so blessed to have a wife who believes in the value of marriage, the sanctity of marriage, and the joy of marriage.  I am encouraged to work even harder together so that we become a blessing to each other, and to our children and their children.

 

To My Forever, 

I'd do it all over again with you!  I'd love you, marry you, and pledge my all to you all over again.  I am looking forward to all the many wonderful years we will share together from this day forward.  I'm looking forward to making some wonderful and amazing memories this year and each year to come.
May the Lord bless us and keep us.  May the Lord make his face to shine upon us and be gracious to us.  May the Lord lift up his countenance toward us [ in our marriage], and give us peace.  (Numbers 6:24-26)

Love Always, Your Forever
