Happy 10th Anniversary Leslie

Posted on 22. May, 2009 by Josh Agerton in The Fam

May 22, 1999. It was ten years ago today that Leslie and I stood before our family, our friends, and our God to make a covenant with each other…that we would live together as lifelong partners. And God’s grace has been on us ever since, keeping us in love with one another and protecting us…many times even from ourselves.

I was 24 years old and she was 23. Seems so young now but at the time we didn’t think so. And It’s been an amazing 10 years together…really 13 years…we dated for 3 before getting married. There is something so special about her and I saw it the first time we met. She was flat out beautiful and so full of life (and still is both). An incredible gift to my life. I just don’t know what I would be doing without her…completely lost. So Jesus, I thank you for Leslie.

For our 10th Anniversary I am actually in Uganda of all places. So we are planning to get away to the beach by ourselves next weekend. But with a little help from Wi-Fi in Amsterdam, time-released blog posting and twitter I hope to give her this gift.

So Leslie, Here’s a little something I put together for you. I have missed you so much in these last two weeks and can’t wait to see your face and hold you when I get home tomorrow afternoon. I love you so much babe. And tell the kids I miss them so much and will be home soon. These have been the best 10 years of my life. Happy Anniversary! I love you – Josh

(PS Leslie, You’re probably wondering how I got this thing posted today.  I did it from Amsterdam on the 13th and set it up to post on the 22nd.  Love You!)
