My Husband

In one month my husband and I will be married for 9 years. We have known each other since 1995, 16 years. It is amazing. Through the years we have had bad times and good times. We loved each other and dislike each other. But through it all we have stayed by each other side. Sometimes you can go through the motions of life and forget the ones around you. Today I would like to show my husband that I have not taken him for granted. I the past 6 months Jonathan had watched his only sister die of cancer. She was his best friend. They always talked and she would come to him for questions she needed answer.
Jonathan has dealt with being sick himself, some days he couldn't even get out of bed. But he always got up and went to work. He spends time with his kids and protects them. Every day he is an example of God and shows me who he really is. He has blessed me with three children. Looking at each child I see Jonathan and smile every time they act like him.
Looking at what God is fixing to do for us it is exciting to know that Jonathan is going to be by my side in the next chapter of our lives. When he looks at me it reminds me of the first time we looked at each other. When he hugs me it reminds me that I am safe. When I don't feel good he is taking care of me. When I am on my last string he is the rope to hold on to.
I love you, Jonathan and so glad that God told you to pick me. Even with spending a couple hours with me you knew that I was the one. I hope that when our children are ready to get married that they will have the same experience as we did. The first look and God telling them that the love of their life is right in front of them. I pray that they are lucky to find a godly person like we have. Again, love you much Jonathan.
