Mr. Wayne Howard…the things you have written leave me simply speechless. I never would have imagined that Bible study (Life Group) would have come to this; and to think, I actually started not to attend (thank goodness my mom encouraged me to go)…boy would I have missed out on a lifetime of happiness and joy! You have brought a renewed freshness into my life and I truly appreciate you for that.
Things definitely seemed to move rather quickly with us and I must admit that it made me VERY nervous lol but I decided to leave it all in God’s hands and truly allow Him to have His way….and Lord knows He has! I appreciate and love the fact that from the very beginning, you made sure that God was the center of this relationship. We have laughed together, had fun together, cried together but what I love the most is that we pray together and for one another.
You have been a gentleman to me from day one…constantly encouraging me to be the best “me” that I can be. In your encouragement however, you’ve never tried to change me…I can truly say that you have accepted me just as I am. I know that no matter what, I can be myself with you and never have to worry about feeling judged because you love me for me: nothing more and nothing less.
You made me the happiest woman in the world the day you asked me to be your wife! I am blessed to be given the opportunity to live the rest of my life with you…something I don’t take lightly. As we enter into our covenant with God, I pray that no matter what each day ahead brings, we always remember who is at the center and allow that to always get us back on track when we seem to veer off to the left or right.
Like you, I really wish that your mother was here to share in this moment with us. I believe that although she is not here in physical form, she is here with us as her spirit has always remained within you. It is in your smile, the way you carry yourself, your laugh, the way you love and the way you treat me. Having never met her, I often think about what she was like and if she would like me lol. I find myself at times praying to God to make her proud of me; praying that I am the daughter-in-law and wife to her son that she’d always dreamed of. Please know that your mother will carry a special place in our home and that she has held a special place in my heart for quite some time now.
Lord knows I could go on forever and a day about you and how much joy you have brought into my life but if I continue on I’m sure you will get tired of reading (if you’re not already) lol!! I love you and I am ready to walk this lifelong journey with you…
