I remember daydreaming as a child of what my life would be like when I was older. One of my favorite dreams was of having a family of my own. I remember this one particular family who lived next door to us very well. They seemed to represent the most idealistic family to me, because …

As I think back on my relationship with my wife, I can't help but see God's hand all over it.
