One Year with my love!

Can you believe that it has been a year?! It is a neat thing to look back on the past year and even through difficulty all you remember are the joyous times. You see the difficulty as times in which God refined us, so we have grateful hearts!

Today I am going to write some of the things that I have loved about Justin this past year:

I love......

1. How I can call him "baby" (it is the name I call him) in many different tones and he knows what each one means

2. How when I get worked up, he is gracious, kind and calms me down

3. How he snacks all of the time :)

4. How he leaves glasses throughout the house (God showed me I would miss this one day)

5. How he is so creative and talented in everything he does

6. How he helps me with house chores even after a long work day

7. How he thinks I am the most beautiful woman and he tells me (especially when I am not wearing makeup)

8. How he tells me what color my eyes are (which is code for how pretty they are)

9. How he encourages me when I feel defeated

10. How he will be a father and how he talks to baby

11. How he prays for us each nigh and each morning

12. How he has humbled himself before the Lord and has pleaded with Him on how to lead a family well and how to provide well

13. How he writes me little love letters on sticky notes when I least expect it

14. How I just fit when I hug him and my head is able to rest on his shoulder

15. how he truly takes makes me feel loved and taken care of. (my covering I have always prayed for)

16. How he is an answered prayer through all of the years of praying for a godly, kind, compassionate, protective, gracious husband and father of our children

I know there is more to this list and I aslo know that it will continue as long as the Lord gives us breath to love each other, to learn more about Him and grace to see more wonderful things in each other than things that need to be fixed.

I love you Justin James Tennison. I am the most blessed woman because God saw fit for me to be your wife and the mother of your children. Hear is to another year of God not sparing the rod and hope that we have more joyous times ahead.

Yah for Poland :)
