I awoke this morning to a surprise and reminder of one of the many reasons I love the man of my heart.
He left an incredible card and gift bag (Boyds Bears figurine) on the breakfast table, celebrating our engagement "anniversary."
It was 5 years ago today he proposed (sorry, didn't have a digital camera back then) and it's one of those strange sensations - part of me feels like it was yesterday and the other (older?!?) part feels like it was a lifetime ago.
It amazes me how the Lord really does save the best for those who wait (whether always willingly, I'd have to admit no) for Him.
I'm so thankful He saved me from myself and selfish desires and for David.
Had I known how incredible this married life would be I think it would have made the wait easier, but the lessons learned would have been fewer.
I'm also thankful for the challenges and difficult decisions He brings so that we can face them together now. And then there's the incredible blessings of Aubrey and Emma. Wow, how things change in 5 short years.
David, thank you for being you and for loving me
in spite of myself.
Lumtty, namat. Always
