Proud Mommy and Daddy

To my Sweetheart

David wrote this for me and it was so sweet I had to put it on the blog. I have the best husband ever. I love you honey.......

I love you More. A mother of 6 you now are Our dream now fulfilled which once seemed so far.It all began late June of 96When you placed your hand in mine and made me your final pick.We started out together, like so many before, But 13 years later have found so much more.We laugh, we cry, we rejoice and we struggle. And my heart still skips a beat each time that we snuggle. A large family was our plan, the desire of our hearts, so this journey began with love from the start.The Lord saw fit to bless us with a child, a son so sweet so tender and mild.Then we were sent a daughter, as sweet as a peach, how could we be so blessed, to have one of each. Another little girl was then sent to adore. . Now we had three, but we wanted more. A couple years passed until the next baby came, which was probably good since we felt half insane. But when the next boy came how grateful we were, as the years passed us by so much like a blur. More time we wanted to enjoy their sweet youth. They were growing too quickly, and we soon learned the truth.That as the years pass us by, they're not long enough. And to see them pass by is indeed very tough. So with that in mind we had number five, a home no longer, now more like a hive. 5 children were ours and I was content. Our time having babies was time very well spent. A couple years passed then she popped the question. She wanted another, it was was more than a suggestion. She prodded, and pryed, pleaded and cried, until in the end she simply could not be denied. I decided 1 time that's all I will give, 1 time was enough, now number 6 lives. The blessing she is, goes way beyond speach. With 3 boys and 3 girls we have 3 of each.She says we are done now, Our family is here. She feels content and promises no more tears. I love her with all this heart of mine can muster. I've learned to rely on her, listen and trust her. She inspires me to be better, more patient and kind. Her well being and happiness consume my whole mind.We now live in Florida, very much apart. From the family that has loved us and supported us from the start. But because of your help, your love and example. Our home is a haven, wherein your love we can sample. Your pictures are hung, we witness your care, your love is enduring its felt everywhere.To my wife, my support, my very best friend. I love you, and cherish you and will without end. You've given me a gift above any treasure. 6 children so precious, beyond any measure. Thankyou for choosing and allowing me to be a father of 6 for all eternity.--------------------
