Special Guest Post

I suppose that technically I'm not a guest since I wasn't asked to post on my wife's blog. However, I think I have the one-time right to post given that I'm the one that showed her how to do all this fancy computer stuff in the first place, and that the computers she uses to feed her online, blogging, forums, boards, photo habits in fact belong to me anyway. Call it a back payment.

Mostly I just wanted to take the opportunity to publicly thank her for being her. She's always so modest about herself and her talents. She definitely shares them as you've all been able to see. However, what very few people get to see is how much she loves people and loves life in general. She expresses this love through her talents and gifts. If anyone ever deserved 10 talents in return for their hard work in using the original 10 then it's her. I get to experience all of this first hand and though I'm sure that sometime I don't deserve it I definitely am blessed to be married to such a fantastic person. Her ability to love is quite possibly beyond my comprehension.

It's been nearly 9 years since we were married, and I've enjoyed every minute of it. She means the world to me, and I'm not quite sure what I would do without her. Often I wonder how I'm so lucky to have someone so accepting of my faults and weaknesses, but also so supporting in helping me to overcome them. Patience is really not the right word for it in this case. Longsuffering might do better. In any case, thanks babe for everything. While I know we've had our ups and downs just like everyone else, I'm looking forward with earnestness to all of the future ups and doing my best to not cause any more downs.

With Love as Always for Eternity,
