Every day I kept track of anecdotes, occurrences, and gossip, bullet-pointing the news in my head and even rehearsing my stories before telling them to Joanie in bed at night.","author":"Kaui Hart Hemmings","tags":["husband-and-wife-relationship","love","missing-someone","stories"],"id":99201,"author_id":"Kaui+Hart+Hemmings"},{"text":"Love notes to my husband, Jeremiah Nii Mama Akita; I will always love you.

After writing to express my appreciation for all the generosity of our friends, I would be remiss indeed if I did not include a missive to you. Out of all the new blessings in my new life, the one I thank God for the most is you. I thank you for writing to me through Genteel Correspondence, and for choosing me out of all the other women eager for adventure in the wild west.  I thank you for your kindness, and your gentleness toward me. Only very strong men can be gentle. I thank you for sharing your home and your life with me. I thank you for inventing delicious breakfasts. And chicory flavored coffee. And prayers that ease my mind and inspire my spirit and lift my heart. For your smile and the way you hold your hat in your hands. For the things you say and how you say them.  Did you know that I pray for you each day? I do. I pray for your safety and happiness.  Yours in Christ,  Rose.","author":"Jan Holly","tags":["beauty","christian-fiction","christianity","emotional","faith","godly-values","happiness","heart","husband-and-wife-relationship","love","marriage","prayer","relationship-goals","relationships","romance"],"id":203566,"author_id":"Jan+Holly"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":26,"pages":3,"next":"?page=2\u0026page_size=10"}}
