So In Love

For five years I have been blessed to be married to this man.


He is a man after God's own heart. A man who continually points me to Jesus.


A man who encourages me and helps me to be a better wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend. He is a man who makes me laugh and melts my heart.


He is a man who has honored every word he spoke on our wedding day. He is my best friend and faithful husband.


He is the loving father of our two beautiful daughters;


An amazing example of the men they will someday look to marry.


He is a man who has worked so hard to follow the will of God. A man who did not give up on his calling and dream of medicine,to now find himself stepping foot onto the next path of residency the Lord has for him. He is a man who trusts the Lord with all of his heart, not leaning on his own understanding, acknowledging Him in all his ways, allowing Him to direct his paths. And now He is leading our family to Oregon as he begins his pursuit of Orthopedic Surgery.


He is a man who makes my heart swell with pride.


He is a blessing beyond measure.


And I am so in love with him.

Happy Anniversary Brian.
