AMAZING MARRIAGE DEVOTION

Diversity in Marriage

Put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, longsuffering; bearing with one another.
Colossians 3:12-13, NKJV

The differences between my husband and myself have been the basis for many fights. My husband likes everything in its place while I never even notice when things are a mess. He is very outgoing, able to recall people's names easily. In contrast, I am almost a recluse and can't even remember the faces of people I've met.
One day, following weeks of tension and fighting triggered by these differences, we began to make a study of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. We recognized our own particular spiritual gifts, and they were totally opposite from each other. This led us to recognize other differences, acknowledge those differences by name, learn to accept them in each other, and then grow to appreciate them for the balance they give to our marriage relationship. I cannot adequately convey the blessing this has been, the peace that has resulted, and the love that has increased between us simply because after years of doing it "my way," we finally followed the Creator's wise directions for diversity in our marriage.

Blessings,

To My Sweet Wilson

My Wilson~ Before you were conceived, I wanted you. Before you were born, I loved you. When you were born, I saw you and knew I was in love. Before you were 1 hour old, I knew I would die for you. To this day, I will.

I cherish everyday with you! I am blessed to be your momma!

I LOVE MY HUSBAND!

FAMILY PICTURES!

We had our first family photo shoot/W's one year pics done last week!! He had a few meltdowns but our photographer Lindsey got some great shots! ENJOY THE PREVIEW!








SERIOUSLY BEST BUDS!



I could eat him up like sugar!~

STRESS!

I am not going to lie- Life has been very stressful since the move to the Boro! ~But I know during these times God is trying to teach us things and help us GROW in many ways. I have been consumed with much worry, stress, and missing- but I pray I dont miss what God has for me here! I am here for a reason- right?? As I contemplate the last few months I think of Wilson- he is getting so big and I want to take advantage of every minute I have with him! He barely lets me rock him anymore, but I still try! It's bittersweet- but he will always be my baby! Just thought I would blog a little and destress! Love you all

SPOILED MUCH?

Wilson had the best time this week with GGma and GGpa! Gpa took him to Target and introduced him to VICTORIA SECRET; Gpa said he even cried when they left that store! hehe. And Gma fed him some yummy ice cream at McDonald's! W is so blessed to have such wonderful great grandparents that SPOIL him to pieces!!
