I attended the funeral of the President of our company. He had been married 36 years to his lovely wife. She stood up and spoke so fondly of her husband. While sitting and thinking I wondered what would I say about my husband if I were in the same position. My husband and I have been married for 15 years now and I pray I get many many more. I began to smile over the memories of him and I over the past 15 years and I realized I am already filled with so much from him.
I love how when he lets himself laugh fully that he turns red and tears come out of his beautiful brown eyes.
I like how from time to time he will dance like a duck in the house for me to make me laugh.
I cherish when I wake in the middle of the night from a bad dream and he wakes up with me and strokes my hair behind my ear till I am calm and sleeping again.
I welcome his snoring in the middle of the nite because it means he is rite there with me.
I like how he can’t be settled at home till he has kissed me and held me close when he gets there.
I enjoy the times when he just wants to come home and put in a movie and cuddle next to me.
I admire how hard he works for our family and keeps pressing on to do well for us.
I respect how he reads the word and leads the family to follow the Lord, Jesus Christ.
Most of all, I love him because he loved me first.
