Hello all, this is Jared - Rebekah's husband. Not that I really have to say that for regulars who know all about me from reading this blog *ahem.
I wonder if you could help me out with a little birthday present for my lovely wife. It is her birthday tomorrow - Monday, August 6.
If you regularly read this blog, would you be so kind as to post a comment? It could be as simple as "Hey Rebekah, this is ____________, Happy Birthday!" Or better yet write a paragraph or two. If you don't mind leaving your name, that would be great.
I'd like her to be blessed by getting to hear from all of you who benefit from and appreciate her writing. I don't know exactly how many of you there are, but quite a few I know. Rebekah enjoys doing this and does it very well, but sometimes it is a labor and she wonders if it is really worth it. I think if she would hear from every one of you, it would be a great encouragement. Let's see how much the "Comments" tab can handle!
And now, this is my note:
Babe, thank you for thinking hard about things and thinking about hard things. Thank you for taking the time, in this busy busy world, to carefully put those thoughts into words for others to benefit from. Thank you for being such an awesome cook! (that's selfish, I know) Thank you for your strong desire to do excellently with what God has given you. Thank you for loving me and bearing with me. Thanks for making our home such a wonderful place to be. Thanks for marrying me. I love you - Jared.
