6.5 Years

It took 2 days after what would've marked our 6.5 year anniversary.  Meeting at the gym.  Living in 2 different states.  Attending 3 different schools.  1 college major change.  Having a baby.  Living in 5 apartments and 1 house.  3 promotions for him and a new business venture for me.  Running away from the Lord for 5 years and coming back to Him a year ago.  A year of prayer, learning, and trusting in Him when He clearly told me He would "save our family".  A year of meditating on scripture over and over that He had given me.  A year of leaning on friends who pulled me through.  And then on September 3, the chains fell off and the Lord's will was done.

In the middle of a messy house, a rambunctious son, and dinner on the stove, he asked me to marry him.

And then we celebrated by going out to give our donkeys water and carrots. ;)

"Blessed is she who has believed that what the Lord has said to her will be accomplished!"
