Ode to my Husband

OK, this isn't really for anyone but myself, and if you are someone that gets grossed out by mushy-gushy lovey-dovey stuff, then quit reading right now! But, I was just watching a tv show about middle/high school kids, and I was thinking back to that time in my life, and I just realize now how God has blessed me with more than I could have ever dreamed of in a husband. And, I was thinking back to all those goofy, lame diary entries that I used to write about guys, and I realized --- I need to write a sappy sweet 'diary' entry about how much I love my husband, and how wonderful he is!!!  Nicky is the sweetest husband --- he always cares about how I'm feeling and talks me through down times. He sends me the most thoughtful cards and e-cards weekly! He loves me despite my flaws, and I can't believe how he doesn't even seem to notice my flaws sometimes... he definitely seems to see me through rose-colored glasses. He is the most godly husband --- he truly lives what he believes and what he preaches (literally :)  I remember, before we got married, I was nervous about being married to a pastor b/c I was afraid would ruin my high opinion of pastors ---I knew he had to have flaws. And I'm sure he does, but I honestly don't see them! He is honorable, honest, respectful, thoughtful, sweet, caring, handsome (!!!), adorable, sensitive in all the good guy ways, compassionate, laid-back yet not too laid-back, helpful, servant-minded, funny, loving, and I don't know how I ever lived without him.  When I was younger, I would pray for my husband daily, and I am so happy I was praying for him. We were connected through prayer, even back then. When we first met, we felt like we had known each other forever and we just 'knew' we were meant to be <3.  He is my best friend, and I could never imagine my life without him. My only sadness is that a lifetime with him doesn't seem like enough... I think about that everyday, and pray that God will give me joy in each moment.  And, He has blessed me so greatly... through giving me Nick as my husband!!!!
