16 on the 16th.
 
16 years ago today, she said “I do.” 
 
No honeymoon.  We simply jumped into life. 
 
6 moves.  4 semesters of seminary.  16 years of youth ministry pay, hours & emotional investment.  5 churches.  3 ministries.
 
2 kids.  2 dogs. 2 birds.  A forgotten number of hermit crabs
 
On that day, when I saw her the first time, I thought that she’d never be more beautiful.  I thought I’d never be more content.
 
I was wrong on both counts.  She’s more beautiful to me today than ever before. I’m happier than I ever thought I’d be.  Even from 721 miles away.
 
I’m blessed beyond all comprehension.
