Remembering Landon...

4 year ago today...
the stillborn birth of our precious oldest son.
 
So fondly remembered, a precious memory...
it is not so much just in this one day that we think of him,
we miss him in all the everyday moments...
in all our family memories, pictures, doings...
but it is good to sit back and specially take note
of God's plan, the Lord's calling...
that it may be blessed to our hearts - for then in would not be in vain.
 
So dearly a part of us...
so missed.
a son, grandson, nephew, cousin...

....................
 
busy working on a large project that I am super excited to be making
for my parents.... their 30th anniversary at the end of the month
and we have a surprise coming for them! LOVE.
My deadline is Monday so hopefully soon after that I will be posting
a rather large post I do believe....

6 Years!

Wow... to think that it has been 6 years already...
 
August 3, 2007
United in marriage... husband and wife
A decision neither of us regrets
A decision that we joyfully call a blessing!
 
Ben, may I say we mold together so well...
Our differences beautifully blend
to make each of us better...
Our weaknesses cause the other to have to lighten up a little...
like you being a little selfish teaches me how to say No,
like me being spontaneous teaches you how to go with the flow,
me being unorganized (I know, it really drives you nuts!)
but it does teach you to be a little less rigid :)
you being a little lazy teaches me to sit back and enjoy my surroundings a little
you enjoy being home has made me more into a home body,
you being so diligent with work has allowed me to be a full-time Mommy,
your strong-willed stubbornness, well, lets just say sometimes we agree to differ!! :)
you being calm and quiet has steered me away from many a disagreement and hype
my adventurous side has led you to a few places you may not have gone
and the list could go on...
 
We have been through much
happiness, joys, laughter, love, blessings, sorrows, tears, loss...
looking forward to the blessings of our future years...
and that we may receive the one true blessing.
 
Thanks for putting up and loving this crazy wife of yours! 
 
You truly are the...
peanut to my butter
twinkle in my eye
shake to my bake
blue in my sky
sprinkles on my sundae
flip to my flop
bumble to my bee
jewel on my crown
milk to my shake
spring in my step
beat of my heart
love of my life
