I got the right one, baby!

If you really want to reaffirm how special your wife is and how God specifically designed her for you, bump into your ex-girlfriend. I coincidentally saw my ex a weeks ago and almost immediately got to my knees and said “Thank you God!” for bringing me out of that relationship and into this one. She was wearing sunglasses inside at a kid’s birthday party, with three-inch heel boots and pants with designer holes in them along the length of her legs. On a Sunday. Very music industry, not very maternal. But that’s her, always has been, and that’s what I was attracted to many years ago. And she’s really good at what she does –radio show host – and I genuinely like her as a person. She’s smart, attractive, sassy and ambitious. Many qualities that I liked about her then and like about my wife now. But she’s not for me. I knew it then – even though I fought it – and I reaffirm now. No matter how much fun we had twelve - fifteen years ago; no matter how much we both tried – me more than her – to believe that we were in love and meant to be together; I am so happy that I found my queen. My queen loves God, family and me. She goes to church with me. She has dedicated her life to the rearing of our son. Ex girlfriend is a good girl, no, GREAT girl but just not for me.

Stay thirsty, my friends. For your wife.
