Surprise!!!


My sweet husband is so very special to me!! Most of you know that he is currently deployed in Iraq. I had a wonderful surprise when I got the mail a few days ago. He had sent me this ornament from Lenox. It has our names on it and it reads, "Always Together" on the bottom! I just love it!!! We stopped getting each other gifts about five years ago and exchange ornaments instead. How thoughtful of him to have it sent all the way from Iraq!! I love him so very much and am thankful for such an amazing husband!

ok, I am trying this comment again. Hope you don't get it twice. If so, maybe you can trash on. LOL
I said, that ornament is ohhhhhhhh so cute and that Mitch is just a darling. That will always be a very special gift coming from so far away.
He is wonderful. I love him to bits.
I love your new hair do and glad you posted it.
I am remembering the Christmas Eve service at your church with Zoe on our laps saying the cutest things. Memories.
Love you, Gramma
How is your snow, if it is too bad, please DO NOT drive here. I want you to come, but not if it is unsafe.

Just my way of saying I love you and that you are ALWAYS with me, no matter the distance that seperates us. I love you dearly. And BTW I could not sign in to Google so you have to have this anonymously.

Proverbs 31: 10-31

While the woman described in Proverbs 31 may seem to be unatainable, I have made it my goal to learn as much as is possible about her in order to make myself a more capable and virtuous woman in God's eyes.
