the hodges family: my stud of a husband...

This is just a little blog, for the man that I love. Brent has, aside from Christ's sacrifice for me, been the best thing that has ever happened to me. He and I are oh so different so much of the time, but it's been an amazing journey being married to this man. So many things have changed since that day I was smitten when I first saw him in our step aerobics class at Anderson University...and so many for the better. I no longer try to coordinate my 'trash take outs' so that I can 'accidentally run into him' between classes, nor do we stay up until the wee hours of the morning talking hours on the telephone ;), but the love I have for this man has deepened and grown on so many levels through the ebb and flow of our marriage.

Brent, not only have you made me a better person, but you continue to make me laugh so hard every single day....one thing I always wanted in the man I ended up with forever. But the way in which you strive to live nothing shy of a Godly life, lead our family spiritually, the very involved, loving father you are to our three, nearly four children, the thoughtful, patient, helpful husband you are...all of these things are just a few of the many many things I adore about you.

Our marriage has been a ride ;) The downs we've faced, I wouldn't trade for anything as they've made us stronger and completely transparent. And the ups...I feel are every single day in my life with you. I feel so humbled and blessed that you are the man God has given me for my life partner, and best friend. All this to say...I love you with ALL that I am and I'm so thankful you're mine!

date night...
