Thanks for asking...

Five years ago.  Five years ago today... God granted me the greatest surprise of my life.  A gift I had pretty much determined was outside of God's plan and design for my life.  Went for a drive with this guy (whom I thought was quite amazing), visited about 19 different childhood landmarks, had the world's most poorly made McDonalds hot fudge sundae then stopped at the park for a walk.  It was cold and it was windy...of course, we were in Wyoming.  And, then suddenly- that man was down on one knee and out popped an incredible diamond ring.  He asked, I said yes.  Oh, the many prayers that were answered that day.  The prayer to be a wife, the new hope at being a mother, the freedom to rely on someone else.  Finally, finally, finally!  Five years ago today, was a pivot point in my life.  And, a blessed one indeed.  

Six years ago today, I was confidant in being single.  Homeowner, teacher, a dog I loved, and just enough relationship baggage to say "I'm done...this ain't for me." But what did I know?  Obviously, nothing of God's incredible plan ahead.  Yet, obviously here we are five years later.  And, what a blessing and adventure it's been.  

My greatest surprise in life- you, Wes Roth!

Thanks for putting up with our crazy life, our crazy schedules, our hectic mornings, our insane quantity of miles we drive, for coffee money each morning, peanut butter toast that's just right, and putting up with my crazy ideas.  For walking through the times when God has said 'no' and God's leading when He has said 'yes'.  

Thanks for asking, Wes Roth!  I love you, My Love :)
