Shout Outs!!!

Did you ever stop and think how much a kind word will lighten your heart?  I know it makes me feel better.  How, then, do you think a SHOUT OUT would make you feel?  I thought today I would start my own shout out lable.  You never know just who may end up on it.

 My CHAD!!
This is a photo I took while we were walking hand in hand on the streets of Charleston, SC.


Today, I would like to give a SHOUT OUT to my sweet husband.  He's my true love and my best friend.  We met back in high school, but we never dated then.  Years later, we met up after I had graduated from college.  We dated for several years before we married.  August 4, 2001 was one of the best promises I ever made.  We have a great relationship, and to God I am thankful. 

I can honestly tell you I married my soul mate.  He is the first person I want when I'm sick, when I'm scared, when I'm sad, or when I'm happy.  He accepts me for who I am, despite all of my flaws.  He's a wonderful father as well.  He loves us with all he has.  Who can as for more? 

A favorite song of ours is EDWIN MCCAIN's I could not ask for more.

Lying here with you
Listening to the rain
Smiling just to see the smile upon your face
These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive
These are the moments I'll remember all my life
I found all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more
Looking in your eyes
Seeing all I need
Everything you are is everything to me
These are the moments
I know heaven must exist
These are the moments I know all I need is this
I have all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more

[Chorus]
I could not ask for more than this time together
I could not ask for more than this time with you
Every prayer has been answered
Every dream I have's come true
And right here in this moment is right where I'm meant to be
Here with you here with me

These are the moments I thank God that I'm alive
These are the moments I'll remember all my life
I've got all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more                                                                

[Chorus]
                                                                                                                   

I could not ask for more than the love you give me
'Coz it's all I've waited for
And I could not ask for more
I could not ask for more 

I sure do love that man!  So here's my shout out.....I love you, babe.

I'm glad you found your soulmate. Your "story" gives me hope about my disastrous love life...LOL...I needed to read this to help me with my cynicism! Ha!

I think it's cool that y'all met in high school, but dated later...I love that whole, "you meet, you meet again..." type of love story... ;)
