My afternoons too.
I listen to music during the comute from our home to my school ... and back home again.
The boys are with you.
You're doing the last minute socks and boots and sweatshirts.
You're grabbing the back-packs.
You're picking them up from school & daycare.
You're showing them what {work} is when they're home.
You're giving them jobs & chores and ... most importantly ... responsibility.
You're modeling.
You're leading.
And as you do all of this and sometimes think that I don't see ... I do.
I see it & I admire it.
I treasure it.
I am blessed by it.
I listen to this song by Sanctus Real at least once a day & pray that the words echo through your heart like they do mine.
I pray that you know how much I love you.
I pray that you know how thankful I am that we're a {team}.
I pray that God continue to works His {magic} through our life.
.................................
I know you don't read the blog much due to the fact that we have no internet at home Ian, but this journal of our extraordinary life ... well, Ian it's happening, it's alive, it's real, it's ours ... not because of me ... but because of {us} and the promises that God has made and will continue to keep.
The promises to get us through all the {this and that} that we face every.single. day.
Thank you for being willing to grow.
Thank you for being willing to give.
Thank you for being that person that makes me look better than I really am.
I hope and pray I never have to {do} this life we live without you.

What a strong, true love the two of you have! You are such an inspiration not only to the people who read your blog, but also to those two boys of yours! They're growing up in a family that loves one another and one day (WAYYY in the future) they'll find a special girl of their own that they'll treat just as lovingly - finding the best way they can to show these girls how much they appreciate them (OK - definitely not trying to rush those 20+ years). Thank you for loving one another with so much understanding that you will bring two new people (Mason and Mack) into the world with hearts full of love - both God's love and your own. The world is a better place because of you Lindsay and Ian.
