The LOVE of my life

This week was my birthday...... for those who follow our family blog you know that she and the kids have been "celebrating" my b-day all week. It has been very nice to be the center of attention for a little while, and have them all express their love. There truly is no institution on the earth that is higher than family, and I love mine with all my heart! When Ginny and I first started our courtship so many years ago, I was not aware that she would one day be my bride. And as time marched on we became the closest of friends. Kissing friends:) When I walked into the Safeway in Chino Valley AZ., where she worked, after my mission, every cell in my body leaped for joy! I knew then that she was my soul mate, and that to be truly happy in this life and the next I must marry that girl.....so I did! and I have never looked back. Ninny, I never lived until I knew you. I love you more and more with each breath I take, each moment we share together. Thank you for becoming my wife, bearing our children, and sharing your life with me. I am inspired to be a better man because of you, you really are a lovely daughter of our Heavenly Father and I will love you forever. Matt
