My blessing...

"When I Count My Blessings I count you twice cuz it's

a miracle come true that you're even a part of my life

I have so much to be thankful for and I thank God

every day and every night but When I Count My Blessings

darling I always count you twice." 

He came into my life when I was at my lowest. My whole world had been unfairly flipped and I was battling severe depression. I never imagined or thought that I'd ever have to start over. That wasn't part of my plan. How could I ever love another man?  I had accepted that I would probably spend the rest of my life alone. After all, who would want someone whose life was such a mess? Plus any man that gave me the time of day would have to accept the full package and it was for sure a full package plus some. God sent him to me when I needed a friend. We talked for several weeks before we met for dinner. I gave him every chance to walk away...I actually encouraged it but he didn't. He chose to stay. He asked me to marry him and I told him for months that I wasn't sure that I was ready for that.  However, he waited me out. I needed a gentle soul, someone who could be understanding, caring, and of course loving and that's exactly what he has been. He is so good to me and these kids. He makes sure every day that we have every thing that we need. If I need something he will drop whatever he is doing for us. He is one of the kindest people that I've ever known. He is my person. He is my best friend. I thank God every day and night that He gave him to me.
