Happy Anniversary


Today marks seven years that we have been married. I am so grateful that Heavenly Father led me to someone that I can share my life with. There are so many things that I love about Nathan, this list is only a few of them:

his smile
how he still cherishes his childhood dream of flying like superman
the way he looks at me when he laughs to see if I am laughing too
the little songs that he makes up
he calls me in the middle of the day just to see how things are going
how he dances with the kids
his passion about life
his patience with me when I am having a bad day
the time that he spends with our family
his devotion to the gospel
his worthiness to hold the priesthood
the way he touches me when he walks by
how warm he is when I am cold
how he sometimes holds me at night before we fall asleep
his firmness with the children
how he is never afraid to try a new food
his ability to see the irony of a situation
the way he can always find a way to make me laugh
how hard he works to provide for our family
his desire to further his education
the way he is always there when I need him
his love of the temple and for marrying me there

This list could go on for a very long time. Suffice it to say, I love my sweetie.

Happy anniversary to you too, Katheryn! It's wonderful to know that my list is very similar to yours and that you are the most wonderful wife and mother of our children that I could ever have hoped for. I hope the Lord continues to bless me and help me measure up to you in some way.

Happy Anniversary from me, too! It was a great day for me as well..I got my first son-in-law that feels more like my son. Now with three little ones I feel like a real Mema. I love my Jarvis family.

Happy Anniversary! How fun to read what you love about Nathan but then even bigger bonus to read Nathan's LOVE reply back to you! LOVE- What a beautiful thing! You both look so young and cute in your wedding photos. What a happy day! I hope you did something fun. I would be all over watching your kids so you can go out on a special date!
Thanks for the directions today I could be in some other state right now looking for Sister Wilson's house. You saved me!

I really liked your list of what you love about Nathan! As I read it, I thought those were basically the same things that I love about Joseph! You are great for each other and I'm so happy you have such a beautiful family! Remember, we were there when you got married. We love y'all!!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!! I thought about you yesterday but my free time is so limited with this baby that this was the 1st chance I had to wish you both well. I remember being with you at the temple, and how it made me want a temple marriage of my own. You are a great couple, and I am so glad to have you as my sister Katheryn!
