Alan will be 36 next week and in honor of that, I wanted to write down some things we've experienced in the last almost 13 years of marriage.
In 13 years we've lived in 6 different states. Combined we've worked 14 different full and part time jobs, tried 2 business start-ups, served in various callings in church, recorded 4 original songs, and earned 3.5 college degrees. Most importantly, we've created 3 beautiful children who are the center of our lives. I can probably count on one hand the number of days we haven't prayed as a couple or as a family. One thing I cannot calculate, however, is the growth I've experienced being married to Alan. We've endured humbling financial blows as well as bountiful blessings. We've weathered many changes and growing pains and we've enjoyed lots of laughter. The Lord has given us a beautiful life and for that I am profoundly grateful. I love you, Alan! Happy Birthday!
