I realized that I hadn't posted a nice picture of my bride in this blog and that was a mistake. The pictures here were to show beauty through awful nightmarish circumstances, which is unmistakable on Shell's face - however, it's only fair to show her looking her best, too. Then all of you can see the beauty I'm blessed with spending my life with - waking up each day to her smile (ok, she doesn't smile in the morning most of the time, but I have my fantasies.;) I've loved this woman since I first met her, and I hope by writing about her in this blog that all of you go look at your spouse as you did when you first fell in love and make sure you be just that much softer on them in the tough times.
