I remember when I used to think being married for 7 years was a long time!
Wow, now we are there...are we getting old? :)
Today we have been married for 7 years and I have to say that I love Jon more and more with each passing year.
Here are some things that I LOVE about him...
1. He treats me like a queen!
2. He helps me around the house...he even mops and does dishes for me sometimes!
3. I frequently hear him ask if there is something he can do to help me!
4. He likes to go on dates.
5. He is fun to be with.
6. We have known each other for so long...it is great to share alot of the same history, friends, family, etc. (I grew up calling his parents aunt and uncle!)
7. I love having his arms wrap around me.
8. He is the most sensitive man I know.
9. He supports me in everything I do.
10. He loves to spend time with our kids and is the best father EVER!
11. He loves the Lord with his whole heart.
12. We pray together...he normally takes the initiative for that.
13. He is an airplane mechanic and is using his abilities to serve the Lord on the mission field...how awesome is that??! :)
14. When I need a break he is quick to take the kids outside for awhile or something.
15. He pays attention to me.
16. Football is not his favorite sport!!! :)
17. He likes baseball!
18. His eyes are such a pretty blue (I was really hoping our kids would get those baby blues...not one did, they are all brown, just like me!)
19. He likes to talk on the phone...to me. :)
20. He loves to help other people.
21. He puts the Lord first in all He does.
22. Before making a big decision he is faithful to pray about it, research it and know about it before hand.
23. He is someone I respect and am proud of.
24. I love him with my whole heart and each day that love grows!
25. I would say this last year was the hardest for us, however, he is so good at making us talk things through (I tend to want to clam up) and get back on the right track. I am so thankful he is willing to take the high road and go "first". :)
26. He is not easily upset (good thing for me!) I have told him that I would much rather be married to him than be married to me!! :)
27. When something stressful comes his way, his first respose is usually what is God doing through this? He has a plan, let's see what it is.
28. He is the spritual leader in our family.
I, of course, could go on and on and on and on.....
But I will stop and just say
I LOVE YOU JONATHAN! :)
