It’s Birthday Love! (No, it’s not my birthdate 🎂 ….but I sure love this post!) So I’m sharing it once again…

Sidenote: I guess my esteem posts turned into posts about self-love. 💕 Sometimes you cant see all the good inside because it takes a brave soul who loves you for yourself and what God put in you, to see your ” true” soul. How you were truly made in His (God’s) image.

Many of you don’t know the story of how Tim and I met.. and we’ll share soon… but…I never I thought I’d be ‘the woman of anyone’s dreams’ but I can literally say when I met Tim, I knew him from before. I had several dreams about being loved, by a beautiful man… and when I met him, it took me about three days to recognize he was truly that man I dreamt about! Talked about shocked! (Because I’d never seen his face in my dreams, I only knew his nature)… I guess it took a while to realize as well, I would ‘also’ be the woman of his dreams.

So yeah, God’s encouragement me to was that I find love again! I knew only after a few days that he would be the one, but I never told him that. Besides, he was living in an entirely different state, and I needed to see God work this out! So…I waited until Tim realized it.

Well anyway, when I turned 48 on October 14th, 2015 my husband was very honorable towards me. He wrote 48 things he loves about me.

I also hash-tagged #48Lessons for all the wisdom I have received in the past 48 years on Facebook, so I suppose he was inspired! (Haha!)

Anyway, .. here’s the 48 ways my husband loves me!
