Thankful for My Husband


This man sold off almost everything and followed me half way around the world so I could take a job in Germany. He is my BEST Friend, my partner, my companion. He loves me when I am at my worst and cares for me when I am feeling sick. He looks out for me, holds and comforts me when I am hurting. He has cheered me on as I forged my career, he takes a back seat when he thinks I need the limelight but he knows I need him to be strong and takes the lead steering us along. He can read my face and in an instant know how I am feeling. He is a GREAT father to my children and a WONDERFUL son to our parents. He puts FAMILY before everything, but makes time for himself and his passions. I love the way he gets excited about his sports and can hear this same excitement in his voice as he talks about our children and grandchildren. HE is one of the most generous men I know and loves to do for others.

This day and always I am thankful for the man God put in my life so many years ago. We met at church camp during the summers of our youth, reunited in the summers of college and married young. We have raised our children and now are enjoying watching them raise their children. I am happy to be turning gray and growing old this this man!
