If you will allow me a personal privilege, I'd like to celebrate a moment.
To you, my subscribers:
Exactly 25 years ago (to the minute) from the posting of this blog entry -June 1, 1985 (music started at 2), I watched a beautiful young lady walk arm in arm with her father down an aisle toward me. In that short span of a few moments my life took a turn for the better. I stepped out of a world of singleness and stepped into a world of togetherness. Her life and my life became one life. Never did I dream I'd be so fulfilled.
Now, I look back on a 25 year package of laughter, sweat, tears, anxiety, cuddling, labor pains (not mine, of course!), rent payments, mortgage payments, date nights, ministry, depression, singing and worship leadership, broken arms, school sports functions, college payments... I am a blessed man.
To you, my sweetheart:
You are the love of my life. I want you to know that when this entry was posted on the internet, many people (granted, not a HUGE number... yet) now know of our life together. That was my objective with this post. I want to climb the highest virtual building in the "city" and shout at the top of my lungs, "I. Love. My. Wife!" You are the best. How 'bout we try for another 25? I love you! Here's our song:
YOU AND ME

Allen - Thank you. And way to go. If there's one thing I've learned in 25 years, it's that she loves to be loved.

Scott - Jennie looks amazingly similar to that wedding picture after 25 years....now, who is the guy in the picture with her? I'm teasing, of course. You guys continue to be a blessing to me. Thank you both for the example that you set for everyone around you. I have no doubt that we'll be reading a similar blog in 25 years. Thanks again for all that you do. - William

William - Thanks for your kindness. As for the guy in the picture, I hear he was quite a hunk back in the day :)
