Saturday Love...


...is extra special.

I have been married to my precious best friend for twelve years today!


We were but kids then, now a little older (all of 30 & 31)!  

I feel like I understand,
so much more about myself,
about the world,
and about my own heart.
But all along, there would have been no growth,
no life, and little point,
without my dear friend, 
to grow up alongside.



I thank the Lord every day for this friend,
And his beautiful family-
Who have given me a home, and a life,
a chance to grow;
and still make me laugh!
Twelve years on...

  2. Congratulations you beautiful souls! You remind me that loving relationships, romance, family, and faith are intrinsicly linked - they are possible (may age be no restriction!) and they are the greatest source of happines.

  3. Yes, and you know why?

    The answer is a poetic closure to my week of posts with this common theme.

    Love.

    God is love, which is giving, growing, loves the truth, hates deceit, rejoices in knowing the real person, the way they were made by Him.

    Love is the greatest!
