Valentines is a day to share some love so I'm going to tell you a story I have kept to myself for a few years.
When the store was still open the January before we closed I go real sick. My husband was under strict orders to post happy things on facebook as if it were me, so no one knew just how sick I was.
About three weeks into my illness my chest was rattling so badly I had to wear earphones at night to be able to sleep. The noise was so bad from the death rattle. My dear husband would hover over me all night long. I had to use sleeping pills to get any sleep at all and they put me into such a deep sleep that it frightened my husband. I however was so out of it I did not know. One afternoon I felt a little better and bits and pieces of the prior few nights floated through my mind. I struggled with some of the memories so I decided to tape myself sleeping to see what I was doing at night.
When I watched the video later I was amazed. My husband was propped up in bed next to me. Every time I stopped breathing he would gently shake me and whisper, "It's not your time yet honey" ."and Don't leave me yet please, Honey, "God still has stuff for you to do", I love you", plus a few other sweet things and then he would shed tears and pat me to keep me from drifting completely off.
I thought about this early this morning and I know without a doubt my husband loves me. I wish that love between you and yours, all covered by God's gifts to each of us.
Happy Valentines Day
I did get better, I wrote a book for God too.
