Nurturing moms in their walk with God

I Do

by 20 Comments

Nineteen years ago today, I said “I do.”

At that moment, the boy I first noticed in a college lecture class became my husband, the man who walks life’s road beside me. He listens without judging, thinks clearly when I give way to emotion, loves me when I’m feeling my most unlovely.

As we stood at the marriage altar that afternoon, no one knew what the coming years would hold. We’ve traversed many a mountaintop, enjoying successes, celebrating victories. The valleys, though few, have been deep. Yet those times have bound our hearts and hands together in the strongest of ways; you can’t stand arm in arm by the grave of your child and ever be the same.

So today, I know not what lies ahead, the joys and challenges we have yet to meet. But I believe, in my heart of hearts, as good as it’s been – the best is yet to be.

Happy Anniversary, my love!
