Even though it is feb now and we celebrated our 7 yr anniversary jan 24th...it's not to late to blog about the most amazing man i know. My husband. We really celebrated 7 years together.....goodness! Even though we've walked through the world and back together (i feel like) 7 years seems to be a woahhhhhh factor to me. I am so thankful for the husband I have. As a child, teenager, and college girl, I always dreamed of what marriage would be like. I wanted to have a good, healthy, happy marriage. I remember in college reading books about relationships, trying to rule out all odds of having a marriage that wouldn't work. And praying that God would give me a man to adore, love, and respect like I do my hubby now...that u lord! I couldn't have ask for someone that is more perfect for my personality, heart, and daily life! Mike is the most hardworking, tender, family loving, involved dad, I know. He has been a husband that can make any situation uplifting, truly. Our first 4 1/2 yrs of marriage b/f the kids came along, those were some sweet memories just the two of us. Our first house, I remember spending so many saturday working in the yard making our little nest so special and cozy...we were so thankful and proud of our house. I remember being so excited it was the weekend b/c that meant we would have a saturday night date, sleeping in, and having 2 days with just u! I still am crazy about the weekends....not much changed there. But since my love language is quality time...there ya go.
God has given us so much mike. When I am sad...you sure can make me laugh. Not matter how mad I am at you or a situation you can calm me, comfort me, and give me words or even no words and the world seems a little better because you're there. The safest place to me is when the kids are sleeping soundly, and it's just us watching a movie not talking...but just being with you. You're real...nothing fake about you...you are giving...and bless me constantly. I couldn't be more proud to stand by and say i'm your wife. Your realness is you....what you see is what you get...i love that. No guessing games with u!
Thank you for making our hardest days...seems ok. I know this is weird, but through ellie's long nicu stay....you were making me laugh even in the midst of the hardest conversations, experience, and hardships. You aren't a dramatic person but when you are...it makes me burst into laughter b/c you are so gentle most of your days. I love it when you give me your smile that gets you out of anything...seriously....not funny....but it works! I love your constant devotion to God, I love your incredible ability to forgive in the most hurtful situations, I love your heart to the needy, overseas missions, your adventuresome spirit, the way to are teaching graham about honesty and loyalty to God, and your precious kissed and sweetness with miss ellie. God knew I needed you mr. mike morrow. I am forever thankful for Him for Him blessing me with a man like you to live each day with. We have our hardships, just like everyone else, but your leadership gets us through the trials as your always look to Him for the answers. I am so thankful for you babe! Thank you for being you! Happy 7 yrs!

You are so sweet Shelli. I can honestly say that I could not and would not be any of those things if it weren't for such a loving wife. I don't ever get tired of you and you are easy and fun to be around. You are always encouraging and supporting me!! Thanks for forgiving quickly (especially when I am mean in the middle of the night!) I can't wait for another 6, 7 years to be with you for 50!
