I don't know where I'd be without this girl. She keeps me sane. In 2011, she whisked me off to counseling, which she paid for. She has a way of seeing what I need before I even realize it. I read every book that she recommends to me. Among the list are The Love Dare, Crucial Conversations and The People Code (which I just ordered today). I have watched her marriage blossom into a respectful partnership. They started out four years ago as two 19-year old kids and I wasn't sure they were ready for all this.
Who could have known at the time that they were more "ready" than any of the parents with our combined 40 years of marriage experience? She is a tremendous example of maturity, dignity and grace in the face of opposition. Ashli is a breath of fresh air.
Plus, she gave us Riken, so you know.... she's like everything to us.
I'm throwing this picture on because I found it on a missionary mom blog today and I love it.
