Sunday at church a sweet young girl who grew up in the ward came home from BYU to visit and announce her engagement. As I sat and listened to her tell everyone about how the guy had proposed and showed off her ring I found myself thinking back on when J.Paul and I were dating, when he proposed to me making what was a horrible day one of the best days in my life! The excitment I heard in her voice and saw in her eyes made me smile.
I remember being newly engaged and so in love thinking there was no way it was ever possible to love J.Paul more than I did then...WOW, was I so wrong! With each passing day, with each trial we face (there have been many and I know there will be many more!), and with the birth of each new child we are blessed with I find myself falling more and more in love with him!
I have heard many people say after being married for years how they miss that new & young love that they once shared. Not me, I LOVE how the longer we are married the stronger we become, the more "in step" we become with one another, the closer we grow!
I am so greatful for my husband, my best friend, partner in crime, and most import of all my etenal companion!
