Every woman (who wants a husband) wants a husband who will love and support her. We often think of that in a positive light. (He will support my dreams and ambitions.) Most of us don't imagine we'll ever need that love and support in times of disability. My wonderful husband spent the last 5 days, waiting on me hand and foot. He dressed me. He helped me walk from the bed the couch. He warmed towels to wrap my feet. I could talk for hours about the wonderfulness of my Jason.
If you are unmarried and looking for the perfect guy, remember this post. It is not always the man who is most handsome, most wealthy, most prestigious who will be your Prince Charming. Sometimes it is the shy, smart kid in the back of the room, who makes you laugh. He may be the one who holds you while you cry and whispers, "I'm right here." And because you believe his presence makes everything better, you believe it will all be okay again.
Next week I will celebrate my 39th birthday. For 23 of those years, Jason has been a major part of my life. We will celebrate our 14th wedding anniversary in August. Of all the wonderful things in my life, I am most thankful to God for giving me this incredible man, my best friend.
Thank you for allowing me to share this very personal part of my life with you. Now, go hug someone you love.
That is the sweetest post I have ever read.
You two are both just awesome. :)
