Back when Chris and I were dating, I knew I loved him and that he was a Godly, amazing person. However I didn't really think about looking for specific qualities that would make for an easy marriage. I never knew it would be important to marry someone who...
*was wise with money
*would take initiative in doing chores around the house he saw needed to be done
*loved spending time with the kids and would take them away from mom when he knew she needed a break
*would continue to make me laugh
*supported our family so I could stay home
...and the list goes on. I'm so thankful that he HAS these qualities that I never knew would be so vital to marriage. Happy 9th Anniversary Chris!!! I love you more and more every day. :)

I too am so thankful Chris has all those qualities plus many more (like chivalry--HA! an old-fashioned word, but it shows up when he always offers to help me carry whatever I'm carrying into the house, is quick to get me a chair, etc.)
And may I also point out that he has uncovered many wonderful qualities in his wife, too! ...like gentleness, patience, a sweet nature, an appreciative spirit, good cookin' and fun!
