I wish we could talk more and I could hear about all your wonderful adventures and stuff youre doing these days. I miss being there to experience them with you :( I cant wait to hear about all the fun times youve had and there had better be pictures to look at when I get home lol I love you so much baby! Happy birthday to the greatest wife there ever was!!! MUAH!!!!

True Love

True love is something that people search for their whole lives, that people when they find it are willing to do anything even die for it. Brandie and I like so many other people had those people in our lives who we thought we had discovered to be our one and only true love. And yet deep down somehow we always knew it wasnt that person, but wed try and convince ourselves they were. But its like everyone says...it really hits you once you meet that one person you are meant to be with forever. Once you meet them its like something just clicks inside your head and tells you "you know they are your soulmate, go for it. Dont pass this one up! Theyre perfect for you! You complete each other." Thank God for that little voice :) I heard it as soon as I first laid eyes on Brandie! I knew that she was perfect for me and that we were meant to be together. She was the only one that would ever make me truly happy in life. But even without that voice telling me that she was the one I was to marry...I would have known right away...like I did, that Brandie and I were meant for each other. There may be no such thing as a perfect marriage due to arguing or mistakes things like that, but there is such a thing as perfect love, true love. And THAT, is something that Brandie and I share together. We are each others' one true love, each others' one True North. I love you Brandie. Youll always be my one and only Sweet Tea from the South ;) always and forever. MUAH!!!!!

Miss you!

Hey my baby boy... I am up a little early this morning working on Mary Kay stuff for a little bit then I was gonna get some more sleep afterward but I wanted to leave you a little note for you to read when you possibly got on!

Well here goes... It is currently about 9:00 am (unfortunately) and I am still about half asleep so bare with me a little! I am up because my Mary Kay Director called me asking about how my second order went and I had to do a few things to finish with my paper work.

I miss you baby, I know our lives keep seeming like they are all messed up and that we keep fighting and having our troubles but I promise when you get home that things will be back to normal and our lives and marriage will be perfect again. You know I love you more than anything and I can't wait until you get back home. You know I am so excited to have a baby with you, I can't wait until we can finally be parents and have a family to raise ourselves. I know everything is not going to be perfect in our family and I imagine there will be times when we might want to kill each other or our children but I know we can get through it and be there for one another. I know that love me and always will, I love you more than anything and you know that no matter what happens in our lives I will always be here for you! I love you, always and forever! You are my one true North.

In My Arms, In My Heart

I was lonely and somewhat lost
I wanted a companion and friend, nothing more
I took the plunge, in I stepped
Nervous and unsure, I waded in

Unexperienced and quite unsure
Feeling trepidation, I wondered if I did right
Feeling shy but needing a ladies company
I took a chance, to see what would occur

Surprise, shock and so much joy
I found the woman of my dreams, I won first prize
Gentle, caring, trusting and sensuous, along you came
Into my life, you brought happiness, fulfilment
And everything I had secretly yearned for

Not sure how I would cope and react
From that first meeting I was complete
Such emotions flowed through me
That I believed I would never feel

Beauty, tenderness, faith, desire and love came fast
All my hidden dreams were answered
By your marvellous presence

From that first meeting, who would believe
Such a strong romance would start
When we are together all I need
Is in my arms, in my heart
That is where you are and will forever be...
Always and Forever
I love you

To Make You Feel My Love...

When the rain is blowing in your face
And the whole world is on your case
I would offer you a warm embrace
To make you feel my love
When the evening shadows and the stars appear
And there is no one to dry your tears
I could hold you for a million years
To make you feel my love
I know you haven't made your mind up yet
But I would never do you wrong
I've known it from the moment that we met
No doubt in my mind where you belong
I'd go hungry, I'd go blind for you
I'd go crawling down the aisle for you
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
To make you feel my love
The storms are raging on a rolling sea
Down the highway of regret
The winds of change are blowing wild and free
But you ain't seen nothing like me yet
There ain't nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends of the earth for you
Make you happy, make your dreams come true
To make you feel my love

*I love you baby, always and forever...

Firsts

I remember the day that we first met I couldnt believe how beautiful you were. I remember the first time we hung out was a fun day with lots of laughing. That first hug was the warmest Id ever felt. The first stare into my eyes trying to figure out what I was thinking. When we first expressed how much we loved each other it was like I finally found what my life was all about. First time we kissed my heart beat harder than ever before. When we were first engaged I felt so much closer to you and my purpose in this world. When I first put that wedding band on your hand on April 16th 2011 I knew that my life was just beginning. And now I have you, my FIRST love, and my last love, my only love, to spend eternity with :) What are some firsts you remember :)

Corinthians 13:4-8

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails...

I know you are wondering why I wrote this. Here goes, every time I hear this verse out of the Bible, you are all I think about. You know why? Because this is us! This particular verse describes our life together, our marriage, and our love for one another down to a T! Please no matter what we ever go through in our lives, and in our marriage, never forget that "Love never fails", our love will never fail!! I love you Nathan Kyle Penn, I can't wait to start our family and grow old together... You truly are the love of my life, my soul mate and my "One True North!" I'll love you, always and forever!

Marry Me

"Forever can never be long enough for me
To feel like Ive had long enough with you...
I promise to sing to you
When all the music dies"

Baby the day I married you is a day I can never forget. Because its the day that my life began. A life with you at my side. I love you. <3

Inseperable

Idle Dreams

In idle dreams of long ago,
I imagined my true love;
A perfect match, a soulmate,
An angel from above. Now you’re here, and now I know
Our love will stay and thrive and grow.

Good thing about us ;)

I wanted to take a moment to talk about something that we hate to do but love to do. We have our arguments...what couple doesnt? But the good thing about Brandie and I is, we always resolve the situation. We hate being mad or upset at the other. We miss that love in each others eyes. We still love each other through every argument. Maybe we hate what the other did but forgiveness is key in any relationship and we both forgive because we do not want anything to get in the way of our relationship. Compared to a lot of marriages out there these days ours is wonderful :) I am so blessed to have such a loving wife who puts up with my stupid self all the time ;) We each make mistakes but we each forgive and put it behind us. No grudges, no anger leftover for the next day. Our love is pure. Our love is gentle. Our love is kind. Our love can be tested, but never broken. I love you so much my Sweet Tea. I cant wait to talk to you today! :) Thankyou for being such an amazing woman!
