My husband: I Just Call Him Mine

There is a new song by Martina McBrida called I Just Call You Mine. It reminds me so much of Brian. He is someone that everyone likes. Brian goes anywhere and people just want to know him. I remember when he was serving a mission (that's how we met) and he was liked by all. He would speak to everyone and he was so dedicated. I remember thinking, I have got to stay intouch with this guy. His smile just lights up a room. We were in church one Sunday and someone came up to Brian and said, "I love your smile, when I see you smile it makes me smile". Everyone at Brian's work love him. They tell me what a great guy he is and what a hard worker he is. Last night another person was telling Brian and I about the time when Brian was getting ready to go over to Greece. Someone in the shop said if you ever need a designated driver, Brian's your man. She said to this guy that was telling us, "Brian doesn't drink, he never swears, he's a clean cute guy". Well it happened so that the guy was LDS, he just new Brian must be LDS to have such a record like that. I think it's so great that Brian can be loved by so many different types of people. People respect him because he is not affraid to let people know who he is up front. He really doesn't even have to say a anything, people notice. I'm so thankful that Heavenly Father blessed me with a great man to be my companion and father to our children (they worship the ground he walks on). I love those moments when he's talking to someone or just doing something with the kids and I just get that wonderful feeling of falling in love all over again. I knew from the moment I laid eyes on him that I wasn't letting him go. Of all the things people say about him, I have something to say, "He's Mine" and I love him.

bridgett said...: You know when I was reading what you said about Brian. It is so funny that I wrote on my facebook the other day about Daddy. I said, when I read the campaign article in the paper, I fall in love with my husband all over again. I think this must be very contagious. :); December 7, 2009 at 9:08 PM

Families are ordained of God. They are the most important social unit in time and in eternity.

God has established families to bring happiness to His children, allow them to learn correct principles in a loving atmosphere, and prepare them to return to Him after they die. Because families are ordained of God, they are the most important social unit in time and in eternity.
Marriage (Genesis 2:18) and family ( Genesis 1:28) are central focal points in God’s plan for the eternal destiny of His children. Your Heavenly Father wants you to do all you can during your time on Earth to prepare yourself to live in an eternal family.
Successful marriages and families are established and maintained on sound principles, like those that Jesus Christ taught. These principles include faith in Jesus Christ, prayer, repentance?, forgiveness, respect, love, compassion, work, and wholesome recreational activities. A home established on gospel principles is a place of refuge and safety, where the Spirit of the Lord? can abide, blessing family members with peace, joy, and happiness (“ The Family: A Proclamation to the World”).
No marriage or family is perfect. When dealing with challenging relationships, it may help to remember that each person on this earth is a beloved son or daughter of God and has a divine nature and destiny. Learning to love and serve your family members, as Christ taught, will help you become more like your Heavenly Father and will help you prepare to live with Him again in an eternal family.
