My children are up with me early this morning helping me to make breakfast for my wife who is still sleeping. Today is our Anniversary, 11 years!
God has truly been good to us. Not everyone supported us getting married.
My wife deserves better and I believe that she does because she is amazing. She deserves the world and she deserves to be honored every day of our lives. She is simply amazing.
When I met her my life was a mess, a complete and utter mess. I was a troubled kid always making mistakes and those mistakes followed me into my early adult life. Living out the consequences of those actions. I failed at my first marriage getting married right out of high school and divorcing soon after.
It has not been an easy road but God had promised me that my wife would be my safe place and I would be hers. A place that we both could heal and grow together.
Now, my life has not been easy even with marriage, had a lot of growing up to do and I am not where I use to be but God loved me too much to leave me in the mess of life and has blessed me more than I deserve above and beyond all I could ever hope for or imagine.
The true American dream, the pursuit of happiness, the pursuit of something better in my life and I found it all in my wife. She is amazing.
My kids think their mom is amazing too.
Adam said to me, "Daddy I want to marry mommy" I told him this morning that he can't marry his mommy because I already married her and he was pretty upset with me because he said that it was not fair that he loves his mommy. I told him that someday he is going to find someone just amazing as his mommy just like daddy did and he said, "no one is better than mommy she has my heart" Awe, he just melted mine and I can't wait for his mommy to enjoy this beautiful breakfast in bed so I can tell her how much her kids love her and how much I love her too.
Princess Abigail, that is what I call my youngest, made her mommy the cutest card, it says, "I want to be like you mommy when I get bigger but not old" :-) Love it!
