As many of you know my wonderful sweetheart just had his 33rd birthday this last Tuesday. I thought I would take a little time and write about how much he means to me and all that he does for our family.
Last week we were reminiscing about the first year we were married and our tiny little basement apartment in Cedar City. We only lived there for about six months and Ben hated it for most of the time, but he stuck it out for me. He wanted me to be able to finish school and so we moved to Cedar City where he didn't even know if he would be able to find a good job, but I had complete faith in him and he hasn't let me down yet. He has always provided for our ever expanding family, and not just worldly things like our home and food and clothing. As much as I appreciate these things I'm even more thankful for his priesthood and the way he leads and loves our children. He has such strong faith and we have faced so many trials together that I sometimes don't know how I got along without him.
Of course he would never brag about himself, he would much rather tell me how wonderful I am. I'm not sure that I deserve his praise, but I have to admit that after 11 years it's nice to know that he still thinks I'm beautiful and that he is grateful for what I do at home and with the children.
