The Most Wonderful Woman

I have been thinking of doing this for a little while. The push over the edge came as I read the Priesthood lesson for today. I am going to try and take my example from the Prophet Joseph and do something I hope will come as a little unexpected.

I do not show or publicly express my gratitude and love for my beautiful wife. Tina is the best thing that has happened to me. Her sense of humor can be very contagious. Her smile brightens any room she enters and comforts child and adult hearts with ease. Her patience for children, especially ours, and for me is amazing. On the other hand though, she can be the biggest mother bear you will ever find so watch out. Her heart is always full of love, understanding and forgiveness.

She does so many wonderful things for so many people it is hard to believe she has time and energy for her family but there is always more than enough. She will gladly drop anything if some one is in need. I cannot say how many times I have seen her jump up after a phone call and say she needs to do something because some one needs something. That something could be as small as a shoulder to lean on or as big as taking some kids in for the weekend so the mom can meet dad somewhere for a weekend. If you know Tina, you have seen this side of her. It always amazes though that she never quits helping others.

What amazes me most is the way she treats her family. We have never been left wanting. She always has time and energy for us. She even has time and energy for me after a long day or two with the kids because I have been on duty. She has given me her heart and for that I am most thankful. I wish I could write everything that I feel but I wouldn't be able to do it justice. I love her and I am so grateful i get to spend eternity with her.

I love you, Tina.
