I am such a blessed man. The late Peter Marshall was fond of referring to marriage as "The highest halls of human happiness." I most certainly concur. We have just returned from what was my first family vacation as a step-dad. I have thoroughly enjoyed blessing our boys with fun activities, I have been thrilled to hear heartfelt "thank you's", and have had my heart melted by constant hugs and "I love you's". Joshua and Braden had just been at their dad's for six weeks which made the time with them even more special. The icing on the cake is seeing the true and deep happiness of my dear wife. Knowing all that she endured in her first marriage and as a single mom makes it extra special to be God's instrument of restoration in their lives. I enjoy my wife so much and appreciate so much the way she completes me. Luci has been truly chosen and prepared by God for me. I cannot imagine anyone more perfect for me. Marriage is of course difficult. And having a good marriage is even more hard work. But to see that work reflected in her smiling face and joyful heart is more than reward enough. Thank you Jesus for my marriage!

Beautiful sentiments! It is with great joy that I have watched my lovely daughter blossom into the happy fulfilled and faithfilled woman that she has become within your loving care and with GOD's will and blessings. It is wonderful to see two young boys grow in trust and love. Thank you Robert!

Robert, I too wished I would have married Luci. :) Glory to God. You both inspire me and force me to believe and hope for greatness in marriage. The more you post..the more I realize God answered a major prayer from the small group girls for you. God picked YOU!
Love you Luci. Will you marry me?
Umm, not to micro blog here but we need more pictures.
Especially the CAVE PICS. I am keenly interested in Luci's fall.
Please post it? LOL
