Whether at home, with friends and family, or by your hospital bed, I've been able to spend more time with you than most husbands get to spend with their wives in 50 years...every moment has been incredibly special in it's own unique way because of you.
Despite the rough ride, your beauty, grace and joy for life has only only increased. You are an amazing woman who loves God and people unconditionally. You have given hope and laughter to so many, but nobody has been blessed to know you more than I.
I'm praying today that God gives us many more years of great adventures together!
PS. I Love You!

ReplyDeleteCongrats and God bless. Beautiful video!
ReplyDeleteMy name is Kent Robson and I just found your site. I recently developed a site called eSentialz for the purpose of writing the inspiring stories of people who are overcoming incredible challenges and following God's purpose in their lives. The first story I wrote was about Becky Stubbs, a young married woman who has CF. (Check it out at www.esentialz.blogspot.com. Go to the Archive on the right called eSentialz and click on eSentialz #1: Breathe. I would be interested in writing your story if you are interested. Probably the best way to communicate with me would be through my facebook page (Kent Robson) or at jazzed4life@gridcom.net. I look forward to hearing from you. You have an incredible story to tell.
ReplyDeleteMay God bless you with many, many more happy, healthy, love-filled years together! The videos are beautiful and are such a wonderful keepsake for Gwyneth. 2 miracle girls in one family - awesome!!

Happy Anniversary. 5 years is a wonderful accomplishment. You two are so sweet together and I'm praying you'll have many many more years together.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary.
ReplyDelete@Kent Robson
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking to the story.
BTW, MWS did not write the song "Breathe" as you stated...it was written by Marie Barnett.
Oh Nate!
ReplyDeleteThis absolutely brought tears to my eyes! You are both such wonderful people whom God has blessed richly! May He continue to bless you, your marriage, and your family for many, many more years.
Happy Anniversary Nate and Tricia!!!

The video is Beautiful! Have a very Happy Anniversary and a blessed year ahead!
ReplyDeleteMy two favorite pictures: the ultrasound image and the bald beauties. Your slide show reminded me how important it is to get pictures of my whole family all together. My husband, son and I have very few with the three of us. You three have some wonderful amazing memories and I'm sure God isn't done.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary!
Thanks for the reminder to enjoy every moment with the ones we love!

p.s. Nate you have had some CRAZY hair over the past five years!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! Happy Anniversary and many, many more to come!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary!
ReplyDeleteWow, you can really see how far Tricia has come. It's easy for us who are not in it every day to forget how much of a toll CF takes on a person. She looks so much healthier now after the transplant, and radiant as always.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary and may there be many more to come.
Happy Anniversary!!! Beautiful!! Here's to many, many, many more!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary to an incredible couple!

ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary! We all know Tricia and Gwynth are beautiful but a favorite part of the video was keeping track of Nate's ever changing hair. You've had more looks in 5 years than some people have in a life time. Of course, you look fabulous!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary!! It's been an absolute pleasure following your story for the last year and a half since I first discovered your blog. I don't comment often, but I do read often.
