May 4, 1996. Eighteen years. I have been married to my Smoking Hot Wife for eighteen years today!
Ever heard those stories about how a man and a woman go on their first date and they "know" that the person they are with is the one they will be with for the rest of their life? Yep, that happened.
We have had so many adventures in these eighteen years. God's story for our lives has been nothing short of incredible and we can't wait to see what the next chapters hold.
What has eighteen years brought so far? A marriage that somehow keeps getting better every year. Two daughters that have their mom's beauty, inside and out. Living in three different states. Great times, hard times, scary times. Times that required extreme faith. Faith that was then stretched even more. Laughter. Tears. Happy tears. More laughter. A love for our heavenly father that grows consistently deeper as we both seek to always keep Him as our number one and each other as our two. Extreme love.
In the same way, you husbands must give honor to your wives. Treat your wife with understanding as you live together. She may be weaker than you are, but she is your equal partner in God's gift of new life. Treat her as you should so your prayers will not be hindered. - 1 Peter 3:7
Mel, you are beautiful. Your love for me is more than I deserve. Today I say Happy Anniversary and one more thing...Let's do this for several more years, what do you say?!
I love you with all that is in me.
