I can't believe it has been 2 years since God made us a family. I am continually amazed at what He can do. When Dan and I met, I was a widow with 5 kids and he was a single dad with 1. We had both been through difficult times and had walked through the darkness with God by our side. I know that it is through the trials that God shows us who He is in the most amazing ways.
Today, as I look at our sweet baby girl and hear the boys playing in the other room, I am so thankful for what God has put together. There are times of struggle as we learn to live together and 'blend' into a family. It isn't easy to bring so many people, with so many scars together as one. Our family tree looks more like some kind of crazy spider web!!! But that is how God works sometimes. He takes the mismatched and mixed up and broken and puts them together and on the other side is a beautiful picture of His love and His grace. It is only by trusting in Him that we can continue this journey.
Each day I thank God for making us one. I look forward to many more years with my best friend by my side, serving the Lord in whatever He leads us to do.
Happy Anniversary, I love you sweetie and I am honored to be your wife.
