So Lucky

I don't even know where to begin, or how to adequately express my thoughts or feelings. I feel like I got the four-leaf clover in life! I am so lucky to be married to such an amazing man! I am lucky to have a wonderful son, and he is lucky to have Stephen as a father!

Noah lights up anytime he hears or sees Stephen! It's instant! He can be crying and upset, and it could have been for hours and the minute he hears or sees his dad he is smiling and laughing! Even though I might not show it on the outside all the time (thank you hormones and lack of sleep for making me a mess) I feel that way about Stephen also!

Stephen puts all of our needs above his own, and never has a "what about me?!" attitude about it. Infact he seems to enjoy doing it. Anyone that is friends with, related to, or even just knows Stephen is lucky because he is that way with everyone. I have rarely seen him put himself above anyone. He is always there to lend a helping hand, and to do whatever it takes to help someone else out. He would literally give the shirt off his back, or the wallet out of his pocket to help out a friend, family member.. loved one.

I don't know how I got so lucky?! I am definitely not deserving of such a wonderful man, but I am sooo grateful that he feels I am! ;) I can only hope to be 1/4 of what he is.. to him, and everyone around me.

If it weren't for his sense of humor, example, testimony, love, and a whole lot of other things I know that I wouldn't be where I am today, or as happy as I am today!! I thank Heavenly Father in every personal prayer for sending this earthly angel to me! I feel so blessed to be able to be with such an amazing man for eternity!
