You would think that our first attempt at a "kid-less" date would have been complete too, but instead, the things we REALLY wanted to do, we couldn't. Not the right restaurant, not the used bookstore, and instead...Wal-mart?? But, now I really understand how true our love for each other is - a date like this in our first year would have caused severe angst, literal weeping and gnashing of teeth! But instead, only a few tears, and more laughs. Thank you for your love, faithfulness, and wonderful care and molding you give to our children. I love you.Hooperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06269526597049768369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553707.post-14966963788907270642009-02-17T06:18:00.000-07:002009-02-17T06:18:00.000-07:00Dearest Elise...You Hoopers are the most radiant p...Dearest Elise...<BR/>You Hoopers are the most radiant people --- so good to come here and bask in the warmth of His Light.<BR/><BR/>(Delighting in all your posts -- reading and smiling and enjoying quietly in bloglines, but had to slip over here to whisper my heart-swelling thanks... just for who you all are.)<BR/><BR/>All my love to you reveling in the wonder of 12,<BR/>AnnAnn Voskamp @Holy Experiencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11742205499025104067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553707.post-19943742076162165072009-02-16T23:22:00.000-07:002009-02-16T23:22:00.000-07:00...and none of us really knows what we're talking ......and none of us really knows <STRONG>what</STRONG> we're talking about when we recite our wedding vows on that wonderful day, do we? <BR/><BR/>I'm thankful for the grace of God!jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02841413494001168762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553707.post-25977948754712700832009-02-16T21:27:00.000-07:002009-02-16T21:27:00.000-07:00I know why.I know why.Bekkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05977499974394792466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553707.post-19332269391089525392009-02-16T20:47:00.000-07:002009-02-16T20:47:00.000-07:00The best premarritial advice we recieved -- "love ...The best premarritial advice we recieved -- "love is not a warm fuzzy, Love is a Commitment".

There is so much more acceptance, understanding, and tenderness now than there ever was back then. How could I have known that growing together would be so rewarding and that true love means so much more after bearing life's demands and failures together.

There is so much growing as a person that you do, but you do it together. I think back to the love I had for my husband at 19 and am amazed at how it has deepened. <BR/><BR/>God is good and has blessed us so much, hasn't He?!?!<BR/><BR/>Blessings,<BR/>CarrieCarriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13401015542969334417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33553707.post-7097421361941432832009-02-16T12:10:00.000-07:002009-02-16T12:10:00.000-07:00Happy Anniversary!!!
