Alan and I met one of the best ways possible, through the youth group at our church. Alan was one of the "college & career" guys and I was one of the flirty teenage girls. Alan proposed to me on a rainy summer afternoon in a canoe in the middle of Lake Sunapee, New Hampshire. He brought along his guitar and seranaded me with a song he wrote just for the occasion. I was so swept away that I almost didn't notice that there was a lightning storm going on around us as I sat in the canoe with a metal umbrella in my hand!

It is so wonderful to see God's plan in placing us together! He certainly knows what is best. Alan, the Choleric, and I, the Phlegmatic, balance each other's strengths and weaknesses quite well (usually). I know that I could not be married to another me; and I dare say, two Alans would drive each other crazy! God's plan is truly perfect. I pray every day for our children's future mates. I know God already has them chosen. Outwardly, Michael shows absolutely no interest in the possibility of any future W-I-F-E (especially when I joke that she could still be in preschool!). Gabriel talks a lot about growing up to be a dad; but because of a 13-year-old brother's influence, it is very uncool to like girls! Elyse, on the other hand, seems to revel in the idea that God already has her husband picked out and that His choices are perfect, just like the choice He made for me.

Ok, now let's switch gears. It's fifteen, count them....15....years later. We have four beautiful children; and I can't imagine life without them (let alone try and remember what it was like!).

Choleric and Phlegmatic are two of the temperment types described in Tim Lahaye's book "The Spirit-Controlled Temperment". It is an excellent study; but be warned...it is a study to identify your own strengths and weaknesses not to pigeon-hole or pick on your loved ones as is the tendency! :-)


Thank you, thank you Jennifer for the beautiful frames!
