Gig Harbor Undressed

Happy Anniversary!

Tough to believe that it was 8 years ago that my wife and I were married!  For a lot of my friends, it’s tough to believe that I got married at all.  Shows there’s someone out there for everyone, I guess.

You hear people say they “married up” pretty frequently.  It rings true, here.  I’m not a bad guy, but my wife is an amazing woman.  I tend to be much better with words written on a screen than spoken words, so sadly this is the first place she’ll hear much of this.  What are some highlights of this day 8 years ago and the times since?

• Every man dreams of marrying a pretty woman…I got to
• After losing my only brother in ‘96, on this day in ‘01 I got 2 amazing sisters
• I thought I was a good teacher…then I saw my wife in action and realized what a good teacher looked like
• I’ve been exposed to a whole new level of compassion
• She’s shown me the value of relationships and friendships and other people in general
• While patience may not be her strongest point, her patience with me is undeniable
• Watching her be a mother the past 2+ years has been watching someone do what they were made for
• Not every woman would be able to stand by a husband in economic times like we had in ‘08…she did
• Sometimes I need a break from me, but she keeps enjoying spending time with me…weird
• I’ll try to actually say it, too…but I love you!
