I love you! I love you! I love you! I cannot count the ways nor will a Shakespearean soliloquy of any sort, render the depth of my affection any justice. You are just what I needed. There is no one on this earth that could sufficiently measure up to the husband you've been to me. I am so glad that you have always encouraged me in my dreams and aspirations, spurring me to think bigger, dream wilder, and chase whatever God gave me license to chase.
You're better than a partner in crime; you're my partner in Christ. I so appreciate that you were the one to lead me to Jesus. I denied your request to come to church for 6 months of Sundays straight but you were persistent. God had a plan for me that overshadowed every single plan I fashioned for myself. I had to say yes to Jesus before I could say yes to you. It took me a moment to understand God's ordering was far better than mine but I wised up so Praise God! What goodness awaited me out of your Godly persistence to keep inviting. You were my agent of change! You are the Aaron to my Moses, holding my arms up when I want to give up. You are the Abraham to my Sarah, guiding me, having faith (sometimes for me) that God will do what He says He will do and not a minute too soon!
For the past eight years, we've laughed and cried together and CHOSEN to love each other deeply; even when it was not convenient to do so. We've ushered the presence of 2 amazing boys into this world and for you and the boys, it was well worth the weight, and the stretch marks :) I loved you before I had words to qualify what I felt. We were truly kids when we first became friends and I love that! I love that you were my friend before my lover. You are an exceptional man and amazing father. Forget what Maya Angelou, rest her soul, said about the phenomenal woman. Phenomenal Husband, that's you!
