Getting to Know Mom Series: Day 15

Getting to Know Mom Series Day 15 is all about: Describe when you knew your spouse was the one or how I fell in love.

Oh this is a fun one...it was really easy to know that my husband was the right one.  
Everything just fit when i met him..he made me feel alive and I wanted to be a better version of myself because of him.  I knew he was for me when I never wanted to leave when I was with him.  If he came to visit or we went out....i wanted to stay with him forever.  

I remember reflecting in my journal one night how I wanted to be with him...how i wanted to become his wife and if he didn't feel the same way i would be devastated.  This was probably two years into our dating stage.  I had moved closer to him to begin a new job.  We had been in the same city for maybe less than a year.  I always knew I was in love with your dad but one day it just hit me...that i was falling in love with him and I never wanted to fall out of love with him.

There were little things that led me to fall in love with him...it was the way he was around his family especially his niece...he was so good with her.  He was kindhearted and nice.  He treated his elders with respect.  He was an active member of his church and he invited me to church.  He liked my family and got along with my niece and nephew.  He was good to me.   He was good for me.  He loved God.  And the awesome thing is that he loved me right back.

Lesson from Day 15 is: Fall in love with the right person only once!!!
