Happy birthday hun!
Happy Birthday to my wonderful husband Ryan!
I told him he has been on this earth for 29 years but only 3 years ago did I get to meet the wonderful gift God gave me when He created Ryan. (I can't believe it's been 3 years already, an the same time I feel like I have known him forever.)
I love this guy! He's fun, encouraging, playful, smart, loving, I could go on and on. Those of you who know me know what a blessing he has been especially in the 1 1/2 years we have been married. He didn't bargin (nor did I) for getting married to a woman who would battle a misterious illness for first year of marriage. This spring when there were so many unknowns (brian tumor, anuirism (sp), and other bizarre deseases) he was the rock that stood by me- loving me- not wishing to change a thing- except to make it better! Without him and my family I don't think I could have made it to discover what was wrong and how to go about on the journey to fix it. I love you honey! You are awesome and a true blessing and gift! I can't wait to see what forever has in store!
Which brings me to another update. When we found out I was sick-- it was a series of things that I was diagnosed with -- most of them (I know now) caused by stress and spiraling down to not taking care of me. In the course of the last year life has been tough. 2 months ago Ryan and I made the move to Grand Rapids. Without me having a job-- but we knew it was best for my health to get to a new place, a place where I could be me, we could be us! I still don't have a job (praying that God clues me in on what that plan is soon) but I have been taking care of me.
Since we moved here I have lost 22 lbs!! I am really proud of myself! I know how much better I feel when I have all my systems working right-- but it's taken 6 months to get to the point of getting my systems and my body back in gear.... working the way that God intenede-- not in survivor or stress riden mode which for me equals all systems shutting down and locking up- turning my body into a compost pile, for lack of a better discription!
So here's to having the best husband on earth-- and looking forward to celebrating many more birthdays! Here's to taking care of myself in ways that allow me to celebrate all that God made me to be (and that doesn't include a stressed out mess!). Here's to saving points for yummy cheesecake for Ry's b-day!
