Saturday, November 08, 2008Anniversary bookHere is an online version of the book I made for Lea, that she mentioned in her post: http://preview.picaboo.com/Webview/CoverPage.aspx?album=000000000002C19A1B&user=0000000000007F1F69 The awesome book she made for me was made with love by hand, so if you want to see that one...come visit! :-) Friday, November 07, 2008Fall colorsLea took the camera on a walk at the beginning of this week and took some beautiful pictures of the fall colors - I just had to show them off. Great job babe!
Wednesday, November 05, 2008AlsoI just remembered a couple other things... She listens to me all the time with my stories and thoughts about everything... and believe me, that's a lot of listening!! She really shows an interest in what I am learning in school and wants to know what I think about things which makes me feel respected! AND, she is working so hard at her job and supporting us in that way too, which is no small task and yet she has shown her love for me in that way - which is such a blessing. Thank you sweetie! Also, I think I've mentioned this before, but that girl can cook!! ;-) I love my wifeWhat an amazingly encouraging and uplifting post from my darling. She made me a wonderful picture and caption scrapbook of this past year we have spent together - I loved it and can't wait to get home from class so I can look at it again! Lea is such a wonderful wife and I know that God gave her so many gifts that are such a blessing - especially to me since I get to live with her! Her encouragement lifts me up in amazing ways and really makes me believe I can do it - whatever "it" happens to be. That has particularly meant a lot in this law school endeavor...as I tell her, I end up feeling stupid a lot during classes and while doing homework, so it really means a lot to hear her encouraging words. Her hugs an touch give me a joy and an energy that really brightens my day if I'm feeling down and fills me with energy if I'm feeling worn out. When we pray together, her love for our Savior and her desire to see Him glorified and magnified in us is a great reminder and encouragement of what really matters. I love you Lea. Tuesday, November 04, 2008Happy Anniversary James!Today is our two year anniversary (three years since it all began)!! James and I are going out to dinner to celebrate tonight. I am not sure where...that is a surprise! Before we go, I just wanted to share a few things about James that I absolutely love and admire. I love that he is always there for me. He listens to me intently and patiently, and trys to understand all the crazy things I share with him. He makes it clear that he loves talking with me about anything and everything. James is hard working. As you know, he is in law school. Though he hasn't complained once, it is probably one of the most challenging and busiest times of his life. Even with all that is going on with school, he stops studying the minute I get home from work to say hello, and to talk with me over dinner. And often times, he will hang out with me for an hour (or several) before he starts studying/reading again. Then he will proceed to stay up until the early hours of the morning getting things done! He makes me feel valued. Even though I tell him that I support him in studying and that he doesn't have to drop everything for me...he still does. Even though our lives are busy, I cherish every minute with him. He is also a very giving person. There is literally not a time that I can remember where he has refused my request for a back or foot massage after a long day at work. James gave me the most beautiful picture book for our anniversary, which chronicled our second year of marriage. I know he spent a lot of time on it, and it is just one more example of the amazing man and husband that he is. Here is to many more with you babe (576 +). You are my beloved, and you are my friend (Song of Solomon 5:16) Lea |
