Mark's birthday was today. I am so blessed to have him as my husband and father of my children. He is a brilliant, funny, loving, caring, compassionate, romantic person. I have a song that I love by Garth Brooks that says some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers. Life could have been so different had I ended up with who I thought I wanted to end up with. And then Mark came into my life and I have been forever changed. One of my favorite things about Mark is his sense of humor. We have survived much in our marriage because he can laugh about things and get me to laugh as well. I am by far the more serious of the two of us. I would be wallowing in my troubles without Mark to brighten my day and make me smile. I also love that he works at the church. His testimony of the gospel has grown so much through his experiences at the church and it has been fun to see him grow in his love for the Savior. Another thing that I love is his desire to work on being a better person. He is always looking for ways in which he can improve his character and is good at receiving feedback that helps him to improve. Recently my mother -in-law pointed out that we have been together almost half of our lives. What a beautiful life it has been.
