To my own Computer Guy,
\nThis morning around 2-ish as I walked and sang to our sweet #7, I stopped a moment to look at the picture from our wedding which sits in the dining room.\u00a0 Have you looked at that picture lately?\u00a0 Did you see how young we were? We were just babies!<\/p>\n
Sixteen years ago today.<\/p>\n
As I stood there staring at our shining young faces I could vividly remember that exact moment.\u00a0 Standing in front of the altar, my hand in yours, as we said our vows.\u00a0 Your big hands completely covered mine.\u00a0 Your voice trembled with nerves and emotions.\u00a0 I tried to remember how to breathe.<\/p>\n
I had no idea on that day just how often I\u2019d be holding your hands.\u00a0 In labor with our babies as I tried to squeeze the pain away, it was only your touch which soothed the hurt and brought me calm. In joy and elation as we watched those babies be baptized, only letting go long enough for us to each trace a cross on their tiny foreheads.\u00a0 In pain and sorrow, there was always comfort in your sure and steady touch, my port of calm in any storm. In quiet companionship as we just curl up together.<\/p>\n
It is your hands which have cradled our babies and caressed my cheek.\u00a0 They wipe away tears, soothe feverish bodies, and hold sick children close.\u00a0 It is your hands which work to provide for our family all of the things we need and quite a few of the things that we simply wish to have.<\/p>\n
It is your hands which I have held onto as we\u2019ve weathered the trials and excitements of the past sixteen years, and your hands I still hope to be holding for many years to come.<\/p>\n
There are many gifts for which I thanks God daily, but none so often as being the Computer Guy\u2019s wife.<\/p>\n
All my love, today and always.<\/p>\n
