Anniversary

In a couple of days, MDB and I will celebrate the anniversary of our first meeting. We met at a Starbucks after getting acquainted via e-mail and talked for 30 seconds (well...it was 3 hours, but it seemed like 30 seconds!). It wasn't hard to tell right away that there was something truly special about Kim. She's so calm and totally at peace with God. Do you have any idea how hard it is to find a woman who's truly a Christian? Oh, I don't mean someone who will tell you they're Christian and then go off cursing like a sailor; I mean someone who walks the walk. Kim really lives her faith and it shines from her like a lighthouse through the fog! Reminds me of a joke:

A woman got cut off in traffic, so she promptly gave the perpetrator the "high sign," rolled down her window and let go with a string of expletives, and then raced down the street behind the offender, tailgating and screaming all the while. A police car pulled up behind her, pulled her over, and, using that loudspeaker gadget they have, ordered her out of the car and onto the ground. She did as ordered. The police officer got out of his car, slapped the cuffs on her and stuffed her into the back of the squad car. "What did I do?" she cried, "why am I being arrested?" "Grand theft auto" the officer replied. You've got a "WWJD" sticker and a fish on the back of your car - the way you were acting, you couldn't possibly be the owner."

Anyway, there's never any question about Kim's faith. She lives it daily. She's positively delightful! She's so sweet, thoughtful, giving and compassionate. She always thinks of what someone else would like before she thinks of herself. She's truly grateful for the blessings that God has given her and she does everything she can to share them. As I said, her light shines for all to see and knowing her, loving her, and being her husband has been the greatest blessing I've ever known. I thank God daily for her!

May God bless each of those who read here and may each of you find a soulmate like Kim. She absolutely completes me and I've never been happier! - Dan

Wow, am I the most blessed female in the universe or what? To have a husband like you is a blessing and I thank God daily for you and what you have brought to my life. I hope we have many many many more years together. I can not imagine how things could get much better than they already are...we will see. I love you, Kim
