Eight years ago today, I married my soulmate and best friend. Back then, I had no idea how amazing my life would be. Back then, I had no idea how being a parent would grow my heart to a new level and make our marriage even deeper. Back then, I had no idea how rich and fulling marriage could be. I had no idea what love was -- I love this man more with every passing second.
Brad Paisley's song "Then" says it perfectly: "Now you're my whole life, now you're my whole world. I just can't believe the way I feel about you, girl. Like a river meets the sea, stronger than it's ever been. We've come so far since that day, and I thought I loved you then...what I can't see is how I'll ever love you more, but I've said that before."

Our marriage has shown me what grace and forgiveness is all about. I am a better person because of my husband. He has shown Christ to me and pointed me to Christ. He respects me, honors me, cherishes me, cares for me, and loves me continuously.
Thank you, Father God, for blessing me with this amazing man. There no one else with whom I would rather spend the rest of my life.
