My Two Ladies

I am not the official blogger of the group, but I felt that I should contribute on some level to this record of our little family. As is the case with most things in our lives, Sarah does the work on this blog and I sit back and enjoy it.

Every day, I take a moment to open our blog and smile as I realize how wonderful my life is and how lucky I am to be part of such a great little family.

These two ladies that live with me make it a total joy and privilege to come home from work every night. I often feel overwhelmed by the idea that a beautiful child like Olivia is in our care. I feel totally unworthy of her seeming unconditional faith and love for me. It's humbling to think that Heavenly Father has left this child's potential in our hands.

Then there's Sarah. What can I say? I don't know why she loves me the way she does. I don't know why she puts up with everything that she does. She is truly the best mother, wife, and friend that I could ever imagine and she does it all without saying a word. I don't know why. (Maybe I never will.)

I love these two ladies more than life itself and am grateful that they have confidence in me as a dad and husband. Growing up, I had always hoped to get married and have kids. I never thought that I could trick such an amazing person into marrying me, first of all. I never thought that such a tiny little child would ever carry my heart around with her everywhere she goes.

Thanks to my two ladies, I feel like I'm living the life I was meant to lead and becoming the person I was meant to become.
