Happy Birthday to my husband!

I am not overly romantic and I am certainly not the best at expressing gratitude to my husband. Sometimes I expect too much and thank too little. I take for granted all the ways he helps me, fathers our boys, and leads our family. This year,we decided to forgo Valentine and birthday gifts to save money for our upcoming Disney trip.

Tomorrow is Kevin's 42nd birthday and this is my present to him. A few lines thanking him for all he does and conveying how much he means to me. I am so thankful that God brought us together. So very thankful that our paths crossed. So very thankful that Kevin chose me to be his wife. Our three boys adore their daddy. They strive to be just like him. I pray they learn to treat their wives as Christ loved the church. They have a wonderful example because that's how their daddy loves me.

Many have asked me lately how I feel about all the upcoming changes in our lives. I always answer the same. There is never a time when I do not want to be right in the center of God's will. When I married my husband, I promised to follow him wherever the Lord led our family. Where Kevin goes in the name of Christ, I go too. That's the way it is.

 "Don't urge me to leave you or to turn back from you. Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God." Ruth 1:16

Happy Birthday, Kevin! I love you and I am so incredibly proud to be your wife.
