Ian

Yesterday was my wonderful husband's birthday, and so I decided to dedicate a post to him. I would have done this on his birthday but I spent all day with him, doing nothing special in particular, but just being together.

This past week has been crazy. We drove to and from Shuswap lake three times, then on friday night, my cousin Shelly and her fiance Ian stayed over night at our house. On saturday, my cousin Terista got married to Jerry and we drove all the way to preditor ridge (past vernon) to go to the reception. After all the drving and visiting, my Ian was so tired, but still so happy. Saturday night (really sunday morning) when we got home from the wedding, Ian just looked deep into my eyes and told me that he is so happy to be a part of my family and that now he is my family. This blows my mind to think that the man I love more than any one else is now my family. I love being married to him!!! I thank God that Ian is in my life. I loved him as a friend, and now even more so as a husband.

I can't even express in words how happy he makes me. Its just this feeling that has no description other than pure joy. It's a joy that makes me cry when I look at him and he looks back at me and I can see that he loves me. It's a joy that makes me want to be by his side forever.

I'm just sitting here in awe and I feel wordless.

Ian, I love you.
