How do I even begin to sum up these years with words. To be honest I have been sitting here staring at this computer screen thinking back over these years and I am overwhelmed at how far we have come...thanks be to a God who is faithful and family and friends who have loved us and encouraged us more that we could say.
I remember when Larry and I were dating long distance. I was living in South Carolina and he was in Mississippi and we absolutely could not wait to be married! Dating Larry was so much fun! He made me feel like the most wonderful girl in the world (and still does today!) The way he pursued me and fought for us to be together, I knew very early that I had to be with this guy forever! The thing that most attracted me to him was his passion for God. He was already in seminary studying to be a pastor when we began dating again in our 20's. And I knew enough about him to know that God was going to use his ministry in tremendous ways to reach people for Christ...and I knew that it was going to take someone special to be his wife. How humbled and thankful I am that God chose me for this task. I must say that I am still in awe over the fact that I get to be that girl!
Sweetheart, just when I think I could not possibly love you anymore...I somehow do! You are a constant source of encouragement and love to me! You are a true help mate to me and I never doubt that you have mine and our family's best interest at heart in every decision you make. I think the best compliment I can give to you is that because of being married to you, my relationship to God is stronger. Thank you for leading our family the way that you do. I know that neither of us is perfect, but you are the perfect husband for me! The way that you love the Lord and love people constantly blows me away. Being marrried to you is so much fun! I am so proud of you and proud to be your wife. I am grateful for these last 6 years, and look forward with anticipation to the next 60 with you! I love you more than I can say!
