Anniversaries

Anniversaries are funny things. We can have good anniversaries or bad anniversaries. I have one anniversary that makes me understand God's plan for my life. That anniversary is February 4th. The Date has 2 anniversaries for me.





The first is February 4, 1994. That is the day of my Dad's death. A hard day to deal with for many, many years. This was the day my Daddy Daddy died. I still miss him dearly and think often about how he would love today's world. He would love email and the internet. He would have a huge TV mounted on the wall. He would adore his grandson. I think he would love this blog and comment on it often. He would have funny stories to tell. Christian might even be calling me "Mommie Leroi"...who knows.





The second is February 4, 2002. That is the day I first met Chris. We consider this our anniversary, even though our first date wasn't for 2 more weeks and we didn't become "a couple" for many more months...this date holds very special meaning for us. It was the day God gave me another start. The next man to play a major role in my life. The man that would become my husband and the father of my children. He loves me and my crazy family just like his own. He is the Master of our family Budget and gives home improvement a good college try. He plays dump truck race with his son any time he is asked.....first thing in the morning, first thing after he walks in the door at night. He is always quick to play choo-choo train or make me a decaf, non-fat, caramel latter. He loves our little family and loves the little one to come.






So thank you God for blessing me with these men.





P.S. ~ Christian's original due date was February 4th, 2006.... Now does God have a great sense of humor or what!
