Something very exciting is happening on this Sunday for me and my hubby. It is our one year anniversary. It is so hard to believe how fast it has went by. It seems like just yesterday is when we started dating. And to think we have made it through a whole year in marriage. It has been a hard one with the way things were around us with jobs, bills, family, and surprises (aka getting pregnant). Even though it has been tough I wouldn’t change our first year for any different. We had an amazing honeymoon with two weeks in Florida. We got to watch a lot of our friends get married. I got blessed with a job that let me work with children. We got a beautiful blessing surprise of finding out we were pregnant. Paid off a credit card with our wedding money (huge blessing). Things that didn’t go so well were how long it took me to get a job, money being really tight, Jon losing his job, and the crazy stress levels. I know that it didn’t help us since we didn’t go to church during everything becuase I was still trying to heal by myself with God on everything that happen with me and Jon was healing too. God then showed us how much this past year our family has been there for us. Both sides have given us nothing but loving and caring support. A huge blessing came when we least expected by my father and mother offering to buy a house in Indy and have us move in with them. This brought out a relief becuase it would help with the upcoming baby and also get rid of some bills. It was scary to leave and move back in with family but it has been a huge blessing. God has us so close to him that we are laughing, smiling, and loving again like we used to. He has taken all the stress with this blessing. The biggest blessing that has brought much joy is our soon to be baby. I am already past due and I just know that God wants to show us who He is like last year with all the crazy flooding on our wedding day…I feel he will give us our baby on our anniversary, no matter how much I don’t want it. Nothing I have said matters though….
The biggest point is I was blessed many years ago when I started praying for my husband. And that God brought me this man. Jon is the love of my life and God has made him into the man I always prayed for and wanted. I just hope that my children will be so lucky when they find their mate. I thank the Lord for this man and I know that God has many more years in store for us. I love you Jon. Happy Anniversary.
