We start this morning with a thankful prayer. For those of us lucky enough to have found our true soul mate, well, what a blessing.

The Mrs. 5-at-10 was born on this day, and I am not sure that I can offer higher praise or thanks than this:

I believe my kids will be successful. I know they are smart. I trust they believe in our Lord.

But please Jesus let them find someone to spend the rest of their life with as good as their momma.

Amen.
