Do you know how to know if someone loves you?
My lovely bride just about hates doing the laundry. Having to hang clothes and fold linen is the bane of her existence.
Yet, she will do the laundry sometimes while I am out of the house.
Because she loves me.
Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come.
Proverbs 31:25 ESV

And we have made it.
I love this wonderful woman of God.
Happy Anniversary, Wonderful Woman!
