myboy is the best husband in the world because...


he points me to the lord
prays for me(even in the middle of an argument)
writes songs for me
gives me lots of affection
picks up the house
patiently listens to all my questions
makes our bed (most of the time)
lets me decorate the house any way I wish
is very kind
has blue eyes


I love myboy so much!!! I am grateful to God for allowing us to celebrate 6 months of marriage today!!!!! 

my eyes are quiet and even calm
your eyes electrically charge me
if my eyes were amps into my heart
than your eardrums would have blown...
my heart -a drummer so poorly taught- 
should throw its sticks out and jump out and say
"can i be yours and you be mine
just so I could have 
an extra heart and pair of eyes"

from: 'my eyes are quiet'

thank you jord for being that heart and extra pair of eyes for me! I can't tell you how much it means to me when you hold up a mirror to my sinful heart, correct me with love and grace, and read my feelings so well through my eyes. you demonstrate the heart and eyes of Christ for me here on earth!
Jordan Smith...I'll love you till the day heaven ends!Ha

HAPPY 6 months!!! J'nelle, I miss having you at home with me all the time to laugh with, cry with...& yes, even argue with...but I could not be more happy that the Lord has blessed you, my dear sis, with such a wonderful husband. I love Jordan too and stand amazed watching at how perfect you both are for each other. Isn't it amazing that the Lord had him picked out for YOU all this time...even when you would cry yourself to sleep because of the uncertainty of his affections for you. Marriage truly is a testament of the Lord's love and faithfulness to His children. I love how Jord is sooo affectionate and patient with you. He loves you so much girl and he loves showing it too. You are also quite the wife and homemaker. I LOVE how cozy your house is even though it's not done yet and the gals at Fastsigns (Katy Van, Kate Dowling and I) love peeking in Jord's lunch box to see what gormet lunch you packed for him...and they are always topped off with a little love note. How special!! I love you so much and thanks for being such a wonderful example for me to observe and to learn from. Jacquelyn

Thank you for reading my stuff. Aren't we so blesssed by God to have excellent and wonderful boys to love and be led by so well !!! Yes, I did write "my eyes are quiet".. I wrote it and recorded it for Jord last Valentines day...it's a little bit in the "High and haunting" range...with some falsetto. It's just a poem really. I enjoyed talking with last time you came to visit! I see much contentment and joy in you that challenges me ! Thank you for your good example.
Jord and I would love to come and visit you guys for an afternoon sometime this year...yunno, before the triplets are born. HAHAHA!well, gotta go!

Nelly said...

hey aunt Jane... it was good to hear from you! Thank you for your loving note! I will be sure to "nudge" Jord! HaHaHa. When will we see you next??? I hope soon. you looked so pretty at our wedding. i am sad we could not have spent more time with eachother, but it was special to have you in the room with me right before the wedding ceremony! I love you!
Here is a verse that has been encouraging for me when i get caught up with the things and worries and stuff of life...Col.3:1 "If the you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of the father." Just thought I'd share it with you! love you
