I'm thinking about fate. Today, in lieu of a famous quotation, my thoughts are on my husband Stan. Today is his birthday, and I have a mixture of feelings.
First and foremost, I am grateful that he is in my life. I didn't get married until I was 32, and it seemed a long wait to me. I prayed for many years that the Lord would bless my future husband with patience, and to let his heart know I was looking for him. And ... just when I had about convinced myself that marriage and a family were not in my future, Stan showed up!
To me he is the perfect husband. He supports me, encourages me and spurs me on. I remember we had a lot of problems in the beginning because of things that happened to me when I was young. He was patient, and gentle and helped me through it all. He still does.
Now I don't know if I believe in fate, or predestiny or those sorts of things. But this I do believe: that he was meant for me and me for him. And today as we celebrate his birth, I want to post this telling the world that I love him and wish him the Happiest Birthday of all time!
What a sweet post, Maureen. Sounds like he is the perfect man for you. Happy Birthday Stan!!
ReplyDeleteThat is so sweet! You two really are perfect for each other.
ReplyDeleteThat is wonderful! I know what you mean with marriage. Although I wasn't married to the greatest guy until I was 34. It was definitely worth the wait! Sounds like it was for you too.
