When I was a little girl I dreamed of what my life would be.
In my innocence and naivety, I never could have imagined what would really happen.
I never would have imagined myself as a single mom, with three great kids, wondering what I was going to do.
I never would have imagined myself getting a job and going back to school at the very time when my kids needed me most.
But the biggest surprise and most amazing blessing has been my marriage to Steve. Never in my wildest dreams could I have imagined a more gentle, more kind, more integrous man. When we started to date, he told me that he wanted to help his wife become what Heavenly Father wanted her to become, to be as unselfish as possible and to put her needs above his own. I am living proof that he is a man of his word. I have never felt more loved, cherished, and valued as a person and as a woman, as I do in my life now.
He has taken my kids under his wing and loves them like his very own.
His voice fills my soul with peace.
He mended my heart when it was broken.
He loves me for me, every part of me.
He supports me in anything I desire to do.
He calms me when I get out of sorts.
He brings a spirituality level that makes me want to keep trying a little harder, to be a little better.
I love that with Steve, the positive outweighs the negative, by far.
I love that he values what I feel and that he is o.k. with whatever I feel.
I love that he is my best friend.
I love that I love him so much.
I love that I feel like I have to pinch myself, just to make sure this is all real.
And I love that I know everything isn't perfect, and that life is super hard sometimes, but that I wouldn't trade anything for the opportunity to be right here, right now, living my life.
Je vous aime mon amour!
