I am so thankful for my wonderful husband, Roderick. It has been a tough year for me, physically and emotionally. I relied heavily on Roderick for help with so many basic everyday life things. He has patiently loved and cared for me these last 7 months, encouraging me each step, holding me when I felt like such a failure. Wiped away many tears, of sadness, pain and frustration.
In our wedding vows we promised "for better or worse; in sickness & health"....'to love and to cherish'..... This year, I had to humbly experience the 'worse & sickness', accepting Roderick's strength for both of us. Not easy for someone who has an independent streak!
We learnt a new dance together as he led and guided me through the difficult steps, holding on to me so I would not fall (literally), but we found our rhythm and pace ourselves for whatever comes next.
Today and always I will love and cherish you. Roderick, you will always be God's best gift to me.
