Desperate Homemaker

This weekend my husband and I will be celebrating our seventh year anniversary. Where does the time go? But then I feel like I’ve known Mike forever. I would like to share a few things about this wonderful man that is my husband. I tear up just thinking about all he has done for me.

I met Mike through my brothers Isaac and Jakob. He went to school with them, and began coming around the house. At this point in my life, I was struggling in a bad marriage. I was pregnant with my second child and I was always alone. Mike was at first a really good friend. Sometimes he even talked to me about my marriage and decisions I knew I had to make. It was hard for me to believe that someone like Mike could make sense of my problems. But he did, he always respected me. He always listened. I then filed for divorce. Not because of Mike, my marriage had been over for a long time. But soon after I began having feelings for Mike. I confessed my feelings to him, and he told me he needed time to pray and think about what he felt. It was a hard couple of months because we didn’t talk or see each other. Then one day he called me and told me that he felt in his heart that we were going to be together. I was already madly in love with this guy. He was so sweet and a great listener. It wasn’t easy being together. Eveyone around us didn’t think we should be together. Did I mention Mike was six years younger than me? Well that was only a minor detail. For his parents though that and the fact that I was pregnant and already had one child was a big deal. I understood that completely. Anyways things obviously worked out. We were married a year later. Mike went from graduating highschool, to a father of two, and taking care of us. He has always been a great husband and father. We had a daughter another year later. So that is our little family. We have three beautiful girls, and we’re so happy being together.

Mike is an amazing person. He makes me laugh everyday, even when I don’t feel like laughing. He was the first man to tell me how beautiful I was. Beyond that he made me feel beautiful. That was something that I had never felt before. He sometimes watches me sleep because he says he can’t take his eyes off me. I am so in love with this man. Can you tell? I don’t know where I would be without him. I’ve learned so many thing about myself because of him. Thank you Mike for all you do for me and our girls. I pray we have many more anniversaries to share together. I am AMAZED by you.
