This blog entry is about a very special person I know.
This lady has devoted her entire life to her family. She has always placed others above herself. I’ve been impressed as I’ve watched her face major trials of life as her faith carried her through and refined her. She dedicated herself to educating her children by home-schooling them while spending a great deal of time each week working and doing a myriad of things at Church without fanfare.
I’ve always been aware of how special she is. However, I have developed a greater appreciation for her as I have marveled at the way she has met recent struggles and heartbreaking disappointments with such Christ-like grace.
Instead of growing bitter, she has grown as a person, daily demonstrating the faith that she professes. She has amazed me during this difficult season, as she has selflessly poured herself into assisting others, doing things that only she can do. Words do not exist that could fully describe my deep admiration for her.
I am her biggest fan.
I am also blessed to be her husband. From the moment she turned down my first request for a date and then 2 months later proposed to me, life with her has been an extreme adventure that I am grateful for. Even though she will probably say this blog was not entertaining enough or wasn’t funny enough, my hope is that I was able to pay tribute to her in a way that captures at least a portion of the lady that she is. Needless to say I love her and I think she is really swell.
