Thankful Thursday- May 31

I am happy to be linking up again with Theresa at Red Oak Lane for her Thankful Thursdays.  It is always an encouragement to read what is posted.

Yesterday was my husband's birthday.  I am grateful for him as my husband, best friend and wonderful father to our children.  He works so very hard at 2 jobs, despite health problems, not only to set a good example for the kids, but to provide the best that he can for us.  He is funny, strong, devoted and principled.  With our children, as well as the young troops that serve under him, he is a good and patient leader.  I can tell how much they all respect and look up to him.

No roads in life are ever easy, but I am sure grateful that my husband is with me on the one that we are traveling.  I wouldn't want it any other way.  :-)

I have heard it said that 99% of our happiness in life depends on who we marry. I think there is probably some truth in that. Sounds like you have been blessed with a good man! What a nice tribute! Have a good Thursday.

Happy Birthday to your husband!! It is amazing how wonderful your life can be when you marry such an amazing man isn't it. I too married my best friend and I am so glad that he is in this walk with me.
It sure makes the walk a lot more fun. :)
