To say that the 20 years has been easy would be a laughing matter .... Kyle & I met in the Fall of 1997. We were both return missionaries... we dated for 6 weeks (supposedly we were in love) and we were married 6 weeks later... After 5 days on our Honeymoon in Florida... and after visiting his Mission friends and recently old companions, I decided Marriage wasn't for me.. haha.. so on our ride home after our flight I asked him to take me Home!! And I didn't want to go to OUR Home.. I wanted to go to My Home.. LOL well I chuckle now looking back on my crazy thoughts but I really didn't want to do this anymore... And it was the FIRST & Last Time he has ever told Me NO!!
20 years later... 6 kids... 23 Moves... 12 wards.. and lots of lessons learned.. Kyle is, has, was and will be the Best Thing that ever Happened to Me. He is my HERO.. He taught me to look at life with the Glass half Full and if it wasn't Full, then I needed to Fill it.. He taught me to Love Unconditionally... He taught me to Laugh at Myself... He taught me to Move Forward... He has taught me how to Forgive willingly & Freely.. He has taught me 77x7 over and over again... He has taught me over and over again everything my parents taught me but because I was supposed to be an "Adult" I think I started finally get it.
Kyle works so hard and is the reason I am soooo Tired LOL... He is the reason I can live the Law of Consecration.. because that is who He is... He is the reason I get excited about learning, growing, expanding... He believes in me and He always has..
And after 20 years... I am so grateful He didn't give up on US... There were times we admitted we didn't like each other.. There were times when we believed in Faking it until you Made it... But the most important times were the times we both have relied on our Heavenly Father to love, strengthen & trust that our Marriage could Endure tough times...
I wanted my readers to know that the reason I am able to Maximize Myself Everyday is because life is tough... and you have to surround yourself around people who will be honest with you and be willing to give it to you hard so that you can grow itnto the Woman or Man you were created to be... and those that truly Love you will tear you down and pull out your weaknesses but it is up to you to MOVE Forward & Upward... Kyle has been the best thing in my life... I'm So grateful for the Holy Ghost for helping me recognize the Good lessons, as hard and hurtful as they were some days, that I have been able to have in my life...
Love & Learn...
Peace & Blessings
xoxo
