very nice Carrie.
Awesome list ! He is one very special person and I'm glad he's in our life. There are times I can struggle with him on certain issues but he has also challenged me to reconsider some of my thoughts on issues and in some cases, I've actually seen things his way when I am honest about it. He is a wonderful husband and father and I'm proud to have him as a son-in-law.
Your list has really touch me in a very awesome way. I'm so thankful to have you as my daughter. He is very special to me also. God gave him to me for a very special reason and I can see it more each day. granny
That was beautiful and inspiring! I'm going to tell Matt how much I appreciate him and love him today. What a great gift for a husband to receive from his wife!
Very nice!
