35 Years Ago Today….

I married this skinny 20 year old boy from the east side of town. I was 19 and we married between semesters of college. The church was already decorated; even though green and red are my least favorite colors in the world. We had a woman “practice” the beginning of her photography career on us, and the dress was a second hand dress from a friend who had worn it in a pageant. I actually paid more for the hat, it was 1979 after all.

The church had just barely completed a total auditorium remodel the day before, it was icy outside, the cake was lop sided with a knife propping up one side, and my dad wasn’t even in attendance. We did not send out invitations, having put it in the local paper and I just hoped someone would show up. And they did. Continue reading 35 Years Ago Today…..The Secret! →

Happy Birthday to my Sons’ Father…and The Love of my Life!

My hubby of almost 35 years is 55 years of age today! If you do the math…. you will see that we were mere babes when we married!

But I write a blog entitled “Teacher Mom Always” and Dad needs to be somewhere in that title. And this blog, “Encouragement for His Daughters” came to me because I have had a husband who has encouraged my walk with Christ.

My two adult sons have had the most wonderful man as a father. The role model he has been for them has been incredible. How do I know?

I watch them with their wives. They treat their wives with the utmost tenderness…as my husband did and does me. And they tease their wives incessantly, as my husband did and still does…. But most importantly, they understand the love of their heavenly Father.

No matter how tired he was when he came in from work, some nights not until 8:30pm…he spent time with the boys in some capacity. Either a whiffle ball game, card game, biking…you name it.

So Happy Birthday to the most incredible Dad I know.

And Happy Birthday to my best friend and the love of my life. The man who cooks, cleans and does laundry because I work outside of the home part time. The man who values my happiness above his own.

Thank you for allowing the boys to see a wonderful role model. And thank you for allowing them to understand the unconditional love of their heavenly Father. And thank you for loving me without condition.

Because of you dearest husband, they get it…in many ways. We all do.

~Be Blessed
IN CHRIST ALONE
