I don't know if you know this, but I have always felt that Ben and I getting together was completely inspired. I have no idea how it happened, but it did. Being so young and not having dated that much, I could not have appreciated all that Ben really is.
I get a little reminder of this every time we move into a new ward. I get a million comments about how helpful he is, how he volunteers for everything, how he loves to take care of Troy while I am doing my calling. I still get comments from the men in our last ward complaining that they don't have him anymore. Yesterday he went to the church at 8 to set up chairs. He was the only one there for the whole church to be set up. He is every Elder Quorum President's dream.
On Saturdays, he lets me sleep and gets Troy up and all ready for the day. He can't wait to see us when he gets home from work every day. Lately, he has been listening to all of the conference talks on his new ipod that he got from his brother. It has been the biggest blessing. He comes home with new goals for us. I Love it. If you asked me how I was doing today I would respond like Ben usually does, "I have never been better."
Ah, this is so sweet. You two are such an outstanding couple. Birds of a feather flock together :)
ReplyDeleteBen is a great catch, Char. And so are you. You two make a very dynamic duo :). I sure wish we lived closer to you guys.
