Why I Love Him

This is my home for the night:

I’m all of 4 miles from my house in this lovely Marriott suite (notice the cozy fire in the background) courtesy of my husband. I’m behind on my writing goals for the month so I am here for the night while he looks after our three kids for the evening.

I love him because:

  • He cares for our family so well.
  • He loves me and encourages my dreams.
  • He responds sensitively when I need space, time, and quite.
  • He is willing to sacrifice time and finances to support me in writing a book that is very unflattering of him.

    You are very blessed. Hey I was wondering if you could read over my book. It’s on my facebook pages, four letters from my mom and God. It’s a short read to introduce my new book orphan on the orange couch. You have to read from the first post coward. Maybe we can work together on it, who know what the lord has planned but I do know he loves me and is with evry step of the way. Keep doing what your doing , it’s blessing alot of people and making Jesus smile. Did you know Jesus asked me to dance with him once. He really dances, that amazing . Hope you get alot sone tonight. I will be praying for you. M.t Fasbender

    Yes, love him with all that you are. He sounds like a man who’s been listening to the voice of the Lord.

    Michael – Thanks for your kind words

    HisFirefly – Here’s something funny… He just phoned in to tell me I’m too kind… his plans for the evening included eating McDonald’s and letting the kids pass out watching Cartoon Network. He’s only kidding. Right? ;)

    it is interesting how love can grow strong with forgiveness and the grace of God. i pray that you continue to forgive and tend to one another daily.

    If by “look after” you mean “stuff with frozen chicken strips and lie on the couch watching ‘Johnny Test’ with” then, OK.

    I appreciate all that you do, too. XOXO
