My determined purpose is that I may know Him -- that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him.

Julie & Julia - the movie

Well, I just finished watching the movie "Julie & Julia". It is about a woman cooking for 365 days through Julia Child's French cookbook! As an amatuer foodie I absolutely loved this movie!

What touched me the most about it though was the glimpse into Julia Child's marriage and how much she and her husband loved each other. She wasn't the typical magazine beauty by any means. She was too tall and big boned! Yet her husband loved her as if she were the most beautiful woman on earth - and she was to him. That is all that matters I suppose. He supported her in all her endeavors. He loved to watch her cook. He told her she could when she felt like she couldn't. He was her champion - her best fan and friend.

My husband loves me that way. He sees me like noone else does. He looks at me as if I were the most exquisite model on a magazine cover. I'm tall and I'm fat. Hefty. Big boned. Overweight. Whatever. I'm not a size 6 by any means but I am loved beyond measure by a man who has taken care of me for 18 years.

This movie did something in my heart towards my husband. It has made me glad to have him. It has made me love him all the more. And it has made me want to cherish that love more than anything else in the world.

I love you honey.
