Happy 17th Anniversary!


I can't believe that it has been 17 years today since I held Johnny's hand in a little Baptist church and said, "I do." We have become best friends and I couldn't make it without him. I thank God often for giving me such a wonderful gift in my husband, Johnny.

Here are 17 things I love about Johnny.

1. He really is a wonderful Christian and believes and practices everything he preaches.
2. He is so selfless and always puts others before himself.
3. He loves God's Word.
4. He is a faithful friend to all who are lucky enough to call him friend.
5. He is in love with me.
6. I can rest in the knowledge that he is forever faithful to me.
7. He never says quit.
8. He always smells so good.
9. He is a team player and enjoys being with his family.
10. He isn't lazy and is always ready to lend a hand.
11. He has the most wonderful laugh, I could listen to him laugh all day.
12. He is such a wonderful man I pray that each of my boys become just like him and Hannah marries someone like her Daddy.
13. He is a man of principle and never wavers.
14. He loves serving the Lord.
15. He thinks I'm beautiful.
16. He is a faithful witness.
17. He loves me madly.

    congratulations on 17 years. what a blessing you and your DH are to each other. He for being the man God created just for you....and for you who honours him in such a godly submissive way, just the way God intends us to be with out husbands. Your post is a wonderful tribute to your marriage. God bless you both abundantly.
