I can totally relate to Lois Lane too. He is both the professional business man who comes off abit gulliable & superhero who takes my breath away.
I was already divorced for a year & a single mom. Meeting a guy was absolutely no where on my agenda. But meet him I did. He struck a cord with me instantly. My heart flipped. He asked for my number - I gave him my work number. He called - we did lunch - I ran - he chased. Simply put he pursued & I to this day am amazed by him.
He asked me to marry him on New Years Eve 1989. He is a man with purpose - he is a man of action - he is a giver - he is committed - he has integrity. In all these years since he has never wavered from wanting me to feel special. He has turned out to be the perfect step-dad to my daughter. He spends time with his sons. They aspire to be like their dad. He is a man that stands for God & country with no apology. He is truely my best friend.
By day he goes to work & he is the man you want on any start-up team. You'd not suspect just how much he has done to go the extra mile. He looks for no credit. There's a job to do & you can count on him to do it. He serves those he works with. He is respected in his industry for his wisdom & wit.
He works in time for us too. Family dinners are still possible here. Family movie nights are rarely missed. He has always been the one to seek me out for a date night. I can look forward to him wanting to just get a cup of coffee or wisking me off to see the latest musical production. If something needs to be done at home - he's on it.
He has a passion for family. He has always made it possible for the kids & I to spend time around the country seeing our family. He has reached out to family when they needed someone to help & he has given generously.
I would be lying if I said we have a perfect relationship - at times we don't see eye to eye. At times I felt like writing in to those magazine Dr.s to ask - "Can This Marriage Be Saved?" Yet we work it out & do our best to grow together vs apart. We've been married now going on 17 years in September. I am blessed to have this man call me his wife. I am blessed to share children with him.
He still amazes me & he still takes my breath away!!
Happy Father's Day!! |

It is a rare thing in this world today to have a man who honors His call from God, who loves his wife and cherishes his family as your husband does... We are humbled to know such a giving family. We love you! This was beautiful!
