11 Months and counting

We have been married 11 months today. Jeff and I joke about how it seems like we've known each other forever, but are still amazed at how short a time it has really been. We actually started dating around now, two years ago. Man how the time has flown!!! (I first met his family by being a surprise guest at Mitchell's third birthday party. Mitchell just turned five... WOW!!!) We got engaged just 9 short (or long depending on who you ask!; ) months later and married 4 1/2 months after that.
What a blessing it has been! I'm sure I have told you all, but Jeff is an answer to many, many years of prayer, and not just because I finally found a husband, but because of the amazing man he is. I would not have dreamed up someone better. He loves The Lord, and that shows in all he does; in how he leads our family and how he loves me. It is definitive proof that God will bless you beyond measure, if you just trust in him and follow his lead. The good things are always worth waiting for. I am happier than I ever thought possible... my cup runneth over.

Anyway, Happy Anniversary Jeff. I look forward to at least 59 years and one month more! ; ) I love you!
