Three years later

The past three years of my life have been by far the most amazing!! Three years ago tonight Jacob and I were nervous, giddy, and incredibly excited as we entered into the sacrament of matrimony. As we watched out wedding video tonight it helped us remember just how awesomely blessed we have been these past three years. Looking back its easy to laugh at our young looking faces getting ready to jump into the unknown together. We bought an amazing house just before we got married and laughed that we would soon actually live in the master bedroom of our house...together! We dreamed of having our first child and spent countless hours imagining what he or she would be like, look like, act like. We imagined all the places we would go and the friendships we would make along the way. What an awesome blessing to have seen these dreams come true! We have had millions of amazing memories these past few years. We have also had our share of heartaches, most especially our precious Catherine. Through it all we have grown together as a family. I have more love for Jacob this day then I could have ever imagined as I stood on the alter three years ago. I could never have imagined what joy I would fee to see our love be manifested into such a beautiful little face. How awesome is God and all of his graces!!!! Thank you Jacob for making all of our dreams come true. You are truly a spectacular man of God! Where you lead I will follow. Fully, Fruitfully, Faithfully, Forever.

Well, once again my baby has made me cry! You and Jacob are such a wonderful example of marriage. To think that people said you were "too young". I just told them they didn't know my daughter! Jacob, you are indeed a blessing, not just to Jillian, but to us. We love you very much and thank God for giving you to our family. All our love always, mom and dad.
