While he was sleeping…

Graphics

Today marks our 6th Wedding Anniversary. As I am writing this entry, my dear husband is sleeping peacefully on our bed with his arms draped over our little boy’s body. What a blessing to see them that way!

My husband possesses many admirable traits. I’ve seen those traits since we started dating in 2001. I used to call him “Mr. Eligible Bachelor” because of his faith in God, perseverance, intelligence, wisdom and eloquence. He’s the kind of man you would want to bring home and introduce to your family.

When I was single, I told myself that I would never introduce a man to my parents — unless he’s THE ONE. And true enough, he was the only boyfriend I brought to our home and three years later, we got married.

Some friends once asked me why I decided to get married at an early age (23). I told them, “When you’ve found the one that God made for you, why would you want to let him go?”

It didn’t take me a long time to realize that Leo was the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. He is the kind of man that every woman would pray for; God-fearing, loving, family-oriented, responsible and faithful. I am not saying that my husband is a perfect man. Of course, no man was created perfect. When you go out every single day looking for a perfect man, then it will be a never ending search. What’s important is that someone, despite his imperfection, was made perfect for you by our Heavenly Father.

My husband may not be a perfect man, but he is MY PERFECT MATCH. It is my prayer that you find your perfect match too. One piece of advice though, marry the man you love talking to and be observant enough as to how he treats his mom. Chances are, he’ll treat you the same way. :-)

P.S: I wish I could share more about us, but it’s almost 5am. I need to get some sleep so I can cook something special for lunch later. Have a blessed Sunday!

    Nagustuhan mo ba? Wala kasi akong maisip na title. LOL. E since tulog naman sya while I was writing this entry, e di yun na ang ginawa kong title.

    Yes, sis. We surrender ourselves to God. :)

    Wow, I love this post. I really admire couples end up together and have that “perfect “relationship. I think it’s because you bought have the strongest faith to God, and that made you more stronger!.

    I also dream to have that kind of marriage.

    Congratulations to your wedding anniversary and you may have more years together!.

    God bless Honney!
