A June Bride Reflects


Seventeen years ago, I married one of the kindest and most patient people to inhabit this earth. There are many times in my life where I've felt unworthy of the good and wonderful things happening to me. Knowing God chose Don Osborn for me is definitely one of those times!


There are many reasons I love Don...Here are 17 of them:

1. He has a beautiful smile
2. His touch brings me strength
3. He is a willing helper (most of the time)
4. He is very patient
5. He has a good and pure heart
6. He still opens the door for me
7. He puts up with watching chick flicks--over and over and over
8. He is an incredible daddy--involved and hands-on
9. He has tons of common sense
10. He is super smart
11. He is accommodating
12. He rarely gets angry
13. He is a good spiritual leader
14. He doesn't tell me what I want to hear and that takes courage
15. I feel safe when I'm with him
16. I want for nothing but have learned the importance of delayed gratification
17. He puts up with me day in and day out and still loves me anyway

We've had some wonderful times and some not so wonderful times during the years and I look forward to seeing what God has in store for our relationship in the future.

Happy anniversary, Don! I love you.
