Honored to be His Wife

I adore my husband.  Have you gotten tired of me saying that yet?  It's not just that he's one of the most wise and humble men I know.  And it's not only because he loves me to pieces.  It's because of all the achievements in my brief 35-year life, my greatest honor is being my husband's wife.

Sometimes I think about what each of you, on the other side of this web page, must be thinking when you read my words.  Here I am, this businesswoman who spends all day managing multiple teams, two companies and a never-ending list of tasks.  And yet, my favorite subject is the love of my life.  In the middle of the day, no matter how busy either of us are, we pause to call each other and simply say I love you.

Keith is the only person in my cell phone with a special ring tone.  When he calls, the song that plays is Easy Silence by the Dixie Chicks.  When I think about the lyrics of this song, I'm reminded of why I feel so fortunate to be loved and cared for by such a wonderful man:

Easy silence that you make for me
It's okay when there's nothing more to say to me
And the peaceful quiet you create for me
And the way you keep the world at bay for me

No matter how crazy my day may be or how hectic this life has become, I receive a call from my love and all is well.  We both take solace in the voice of each other.  It's our serenity in the middle of a clamorous day.  Each of those calls (and we do call each other alot) represent a still point in this turning world.

Until tomorrow...make it a great day!
