It is truly a blessing to be celebrating our Wedding Anniversary today. I am so thankful to have such a wonderful and supportive husband. I can say he is a great father and husband. Now, that does not mean that he never does anything to get under my skin but we have learned what is really important to us. Our marriage is like others we both have our faults but we have learned to work through them. NO marriage is perfect. Although, some would have you to believe that. NOT TRUE!!!
I am thankful he loves me even though I fall short.
There will be more on marriage at a later date.
I included the following video because this song was played at our wedding and I remember it as if it was yesterday. (I found it on youtube and thought I would share for those who may not be familiar with the song.)
Courtney from Women Living Well has came up with a challenge for women to be the woman your man needs.
The following is a schedule of what the topic is for the given week.
June 7 - announce to your readers you are participating by posting the button on your site and leaving your link below. Optional: Embed the HTML from this video in your blog post!
June 14 – Post Pictures from your dating days (or tell us all about it!). Think about one thing you used to do or have as a couple that you have lost in the shuffle of life. How can you regain it?
June 21 - Remember Your Vows - post pictures of your wedding day. We will review the sacredness of this day.
June 28 - Ask your husband every morning how you can pray for him that day. Bonus: Fast and pray for him one day this week.
July 5 - Admire Your Husband. Write this post and then show it to him! He will smile!
July 12 - Make a list of 5 things you currently do and ask him to prioritize them for you of what is important to him. For example - a clean home, home cooked dinner, coupon clipping, service at church, having friends over for dinner, watching/doing sports with him, etc.
July 19 - Make him a priority. Ask him what his favorite dinner, dessert and drink are. Be sure to serve him all three one night this week. Bonus: cook his favorite dishes all week long!
July 26 - Support his vision. Discuss his vision for your family. Where does he see your family in 1 year, 5 years, and 10 years. Share with us how you let your husband lead.
August 2 - R-E-S-P-E-C-T! No complaining, criticizing, rolling your eyes, nagging, or giving him any friction this week. Enjoy a week of peace in your home!
August 9 - Kiss Him Like You Mean It (and be sure the door is locked!)
Be sure to stop by and visit and join us in the challenge.
My darling husband decided he was going to fix breakfast this morning. I was so excited because he was going to make pancakes. This morning when I woke up his pancakes were on my mind. I thought to myself that is sad to go to bed with pancakes on my mind. I was looking forward to it. Then I realized, it was not the pancakes I was looking forward to. It was the fact that my husband was cooking them. I must say they were the best pancakes and were even in the perfect circle.
It's not like he has never cooked before, but it was somthing about this time. He is a great husband and an awesome father.
I'm looking forward to him grilling on tomorrow. Yes, that was his idea to.
