| and love your choice. |
Adam and I are coming up on our 17th Anniversary. We have been married about half of my life. We have shared many wonderful moments and many not so wonderful moments. Many times I look back at my life and think, "Wow, life hasn't really turned out like I had imagined it." then I think, "Wow, I am so glad that life didn't turn out the way I had imagined it!" The Lord knows what he is doing. I'm so grateful for my husband and that Heavenly Father led me to him. I love him more today than ever and I know that our love will continue to grow. It's like a flower garden. It takes time, effort, work, planning, and the results are overwhelmingly beautiful.
Adam and I really enjoyed General Conference last week. One of our favorite quotes was from the priesthood session. "Choose your love and love your choice." I love my choice. How could I not when I am privileged to spend my days and night with a man that adores me, forgives me, listens to me, shares things with me, honors me. The best is yet to be. In 17 short years we have added seven wonderful people to our home. In the years to come many more wonderful people will join our family circle:
in-laws, grandchildren ... I look forward to these years of rejoicing and it all started in 1994.

ahh. very sweet. you have a gift for writing and I enjoy your perspective and good attitude about life and enjoying the journey! Cheers to another 17 years!
You are so precious to me, my sweet wife. I could spend eternity looking in your eyes and losing myself in your embrace. I think I will do just that. I love you.
Your adoring husband.
"And the LORD God said, [It is] not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him."
Genesis 2:18
"[Whoso] findeth a wife findeth a good [thing], and obtaineth favour of the LORD."
Proverbs 18:22
These scriptures humble me beyond words.
I love my precious wife. I have indeed been blessed to find "a good thing" and it has been testified to me that It would "not be good" for me to be alone.
Thank you Holly. I love you.
"A virtuous woman [is] a crown to her husband: but she that maketh ashamed [is] as rottenness in his bones."
Proverbs 12:4
I have a virtuous wife-- what a blessing!
"Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.
The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil.
She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life."
Proverbs 31: 10-12
This describes my sweet wife.
