Filling in the gaps

(Tucker needed a bit of snuggling to get warm at a soccer game.)

On Sunday, they reorganized our bishopric. Our bishop related that when he received his call, he was counseled to find men for the bishopric who "filled in the gaps" or had strengths in areas that he might be weak. I instantly thought- that is exactly what Tyler does for me! I think we probably couldn't be more different, but I like to think that we compliment each other perfectly.

Our courtship and marriage is a bit unconventional in that we've had to spend a lot more time apart than we would like. The most recent trip to Cebu for a little over 4 months was one of the hardest things we've done so far. I thought our marriage was strong before, but I've been amazed at how far we've come in the last year.

We met a couple of weeks before Tyler's 19th birthday, so we've kind of been looking forward to this time. Every day now means that our life together is longer than the time before we met. It's been amazing so far- I can't wait to see what the next 19 years holds for us!
