    I Will Be Here – Steven Curtis Chapman – played at our wedding! What I love about Neal – well one of them – is his support for me in my pursuit to help orphans through ministry!!!!!

    Your anniversary is my Russian daughter, Beka's, birthday!!!!! :)

  2. Amy Harcar Says:

    My favorite is Every Step You Take by The Police. When my hubby and I first started dating we went to lunch with friends. I saw that song on the jukebox but didn't play it because I thought it would be a little to much. When he picked his songs that was one of them. I knew I would marry the boy.

  3. Tara Neal Says:

    I love how he cares about other people before himself!

  4. Julie Mullins Says:

    I love how compassionate my hubby is!

    We had "Love of a Lifetime" by FireHouse played at our wedding. :) Very romantic!

  5. Lisa Heddleson Says:

    I love the song "When I said I do" by Clint Black. It was our wedding song 6 and 1/2 years ago.

  6. Shonni Says:

    My husband takes care of us all on Saturday, even cooking supper…isn't that the sweetest!

  7. Amy @ Filled With Pr Says:

    I love his priorities…God, family, and the rest will fall into place.

    My favorite song is "I will be here" by SCC. It was sang at our wedding.

    Happy Anniversary to you and your husband. You two are so cute together :)

    Blessings,

    Amy

  8. Carisa Roberson Says:

    I love the song Beautiful Tonight, or You Look Beautiful Tonight, whatever it is, by Eric Clapton.

    What I love the most about my husband is that he isn't easy about anything. He always challenges my decisions, or wants to know "why" about everything I think or do. I like that because it usually causes some really good discussions between the two of us, and helps me to think twice about things, which is good because I'm usually a little spastic.

    I do the same thing to him, but I don't think he appreciates it as much as I do!

  9. FruitfulJenn Says:

    Happy Anniversary! Mine and dh's favorite mushy song is "I Need You" by Tim McGraw. Gets us every time. :D

  10. Jamey Says:

    Our love song is "So Happy Together". :)

  11. Alison Douglas Says:

    i love that my husband normally apologizes first. it's humbling to me.

  13. Anne Says:

    I love how my husband loves and cares for our daughter! It makes me fall in love with him all over again.

  14. Cindy Says:

    I love watching him play with the kids. He is much better about taking time for fun then mommy. Our sweet wedding song is I Don't Want to Miss a Thing by Aerosmith : )

    Happy Anniversary!

  15. Rebecca Says:

  16. April Houston Says:

    I love my husband's heart & His obedience to the call to full time ministry. He is an awesome daddy! (I could go on & on but you asked for one:) I do love SCC's I Will Be Here. Great giveaway!

  17. Heather R Says:

    love this giveaway!

    I love the way my husband fathers our children. and the way he was totally on board when I told him God was sending us to find a daughter to adopt. :)

    our favorite song – Everything I do, I do it for you by Bryan Adams

  18. Tracy Says:

    I LOVE that he didnt even hesitate when i mentioned adopting…. His heart is soooo big! Especially for children:)

    Cheesey but my favorite love song is I will always love you by Whitney Houston!

  19. Emily B. Says:

    Happy Anniversary! One of my favorite romantic songs is Crazy Love by Van Morrison. The other day I was sick with a stomach bug and my husband worked from home that day to take care of me. It's the little things that I love the most. :)

  20. Ashley Says:

    My favorite thing about my husband is how much he loves the Lord! I have been able to watch him grow in his faith over the last 9 years and become the leader of our home that God intended him to be.

  21. Lori Laughner Says:

    I will be Here- Steven Curtis Chapman

    I love that we are a team, we compliment each other. I also love that we both have a heart for orphans and Ethiopia! I love the family that we are building together.I love the husband and father that he is.

  22. j Says:

    You are always the crazy person sharing love with many … :P

    Always – Atlantic Starr

    His love for love me challenges me to be a better person.

    Congrats on 18 together!

  23. Bunny Says:

    My husband is a pastor which means our lives are pretty much filled with "everyone else" most times. He makes sure to listen to my moods – watching for times when stress enters and helps me through it. Our song since dating is "You are the Sunshine of my Life" by Stevie Wonder.

  24. Janell Says:

    I'm going to post both options. :) I love that my husband loves to play with our kids. Every night after supper, on his day off, Sunday after church, etc. He's a great player. Something I'm not good at. And my new favorite love song….Hey,Soul Sister!

  25. Jenn B. Says:

    Happy Anniversary!!!

    What I love about my husband…everything!! His faith in God, his love for me and our two children and his willingness to follow Gods direction in our lives to adopt a baby from Ethiopia! I have been blessed with an amzing partner and my kids have an amazing dad!!!

    I love that song by Tim McGraw and Faith Hill – It's Your Love!!

  26. Amy Says:

    My husband had a beautiful string arrangement and friend/singer/songwriter do "I Will Be Here" at our wedding. It was beyond beautiful and a moment I will never forget!

    A reason why I love him? Despite the enormous mountains we have had to climb (and continue to do so) he continues to try and conquer despite the pain he faces.

  27. Randi Shetley Says:

    I love how my husband and I fit together. Even though our personalities are completely opposite… together we are stronger and wiser because of those differences. Where he is weak, I am strong…and where I am weak, he is strong. "He Completes Me" (sniff, sniff – *dramatically wipes a tear*)

    My favorite gushy song? I have always loved "In Your Eyes", but Shane sang "I Swear" to me at our wedding, so that has to be the one (-:

  28. missy Says:

    fav thing about my husband…the way he loves jesus. sometimes i actually get a little jealous, but i know it is what enables him to love me so well.

    fav love song…time after time by frank sinatra(NOT the cyndi lauper one). it was my parents song.

    happy anniversary to you!

  29. Charisa Knight Says:

    My husband has literally been my rock. As I came into our marriage as a wounded messed up 19 yr old girl–He stood by me and loved me through ALOT of healing times. Seriously, noone else would have put up with me. He joins in on my crazy plans and ideas and jumps with me in leaps of faith. He anchors me when I am on a emotional rollercoaster and most of all–He does all of this pointing to my Heavenly Father as my true Rock and Anchor…

    Mushy Love Song…It's a new one by Sara Groves "It's Me"
    Because it's real.

  30. Charisa Knight Says:

    changing my song to Fly by Sara Groves…It's probably more MUSHY :)

  31. Jen Says:

    1. I love his compassion towards others and how he will drop everything and help a person in need 2. He picked the song we danced to at our wedding. It was one most had never heard of. I questioned but he insisted that that was our song. It is by the Rembrandts and called " Chase the Clouds Away" Years later I know that that song indeed is our song.

  32. Grampa Says:

    I love my wife's faithfulness and she's so responsible!!

    I wrote a love song for her from the Four Freeman,1964, "Graduaton Day."

  33. Amber Stutzman Says:

    When my husband proposed to me with lunch, dinner, roses, a gift -it was an all day event until the end when I got a ring!

  34. Kelly Summers Says:

    cute Photo! #1: his love for God. I dont know where we would be with out this. #2 his green eyes…they get me every time!

  35. AmyE Says:

    20 years later, he still makes me laugh more than anyone else. and I love the song, Something That We Do by Clint Black. And I know the drawing is random, but I do SO want to win the t-shirts. Waiting for our referral from AWAA and can't seem to justify spending $ on all these awesome t-shirts I see in blogland … but really want one.

  36. Nina Says:

    Have you seen Jerry Lewis's original Nutty Professor? Well, my husband has. And he loves to quote it, and dance just like Jerry Lewis does in the movie when he is the nerdy professor….by himself, with jerky movements, on any dance floor we meet. I LOVE this about him! And our favorite "gush mushy Love Song"?

    Elvis Presley's, Can't Help Falling in Love.

  37. Kryste Says:

    I love that my husband is one of the most generous people I know. He wouldn't even blink if I told him that some how we got a referral for a sibling group of 7. :)

    We LOVE cheesy 80s love songs… one of our faves to sing loudly if it eve comes on is Peter Ceterra's " For the Glory of Love" . Ahhh yeeeaaah!

    Happy Anniversary and hope you have many many more wonderful years together!

  38. Stephanie G. Says:

    The thing I love most about my husband is that no matter what we go thur he makes it so much better by just being there with me and acts like he knows what I'm going thru even tho I know he has no idea but it means a lot to me that he actually tries to. My fave mushy love song is I Sware by Boys 2 Men.

  39. Kristen Says:

    I love that my husband has supported me and works very hard for our family while I go to nursing school. He doesn't complain about have to do the cooking, cleaning, or bath time while I study. He is an amazing man. God definitly knew what he was doing when He put him in my life.

    I don't know if we have a favorite song. We both Like listening to Josh Groban or Michael Buble'.

  40. Karen Says:

    My husband is my rock. He is a steady influence in an unsteady world. He shows our boys what sacrificial love is on a daily basis.

    My favorite mushy love song is "I Will Be Here" by Steven Curtis Chapman. Our friends sang it at our wedding and hearing it takes me right back to standing at the altar, whispering and giggling with my sweet husband while everyone else cried! lol!

  41. Ramona Says:

    I can't quite imagine ever going out with just my hubby again… after 3 years, we're home 2 weeks now with our 2 little ones from Ethiopia! So our family of 4 is now 6! And one thing I love about my hubby is how he's such an involved Daddy. I love watching him play with, discipline and love our kids. And, I love that he's taking 9 months off his job to be home with us(parental leave in Canada)!

    I could go on and on… but you only wanted one thing.

  42. Kari Says:

    I LOVE YOUR COMMENTS… keep going!! I'll pick a winner on Tuesday:)

  43. Brittney Says:

    I love what a great dad my hubby is! We danced to "At Last" at our wedding almost 8 years ago! WOW.

  44. melissa Says:

    My husband has been the love of my life since I was 14yrs. old. We will be married 15 yrs. this September. I wouldn't trade a day we have had together. I love his commitment, love, patience and friendship. He is a great daddy to our four children and know he will love our new baby from Ethiopia with all his heart!

  45. Stephanie Says:

    I love that 15 years later . . . he's still my best friend! :)

    Favorite song was played at our wedding: "I will be here" by SCC.

  46. Carol Says:

    I love that my husband, loves me "anyway". That would probably be best compared to unconditionally, which is most often undeserved. I am a "second wife", as my husband lost his wife of almost 20 years to cancer in only 38 days. She was my best friend. As time went on, we began dating, and married after 3 years. I don't do him justice, but he still loves me "anyway".

    We, too, had SCC "I Will Be Here" sung at our wedding, however we are also partial to Steve Green's "Household of Faith" as well – what we hope our home will reflect.

    Blessings on your anniversary.

  47. Jody Says:

    I love that my husband is a big ole softie. He has the BIGGEST heart of anyone i know. and i love how he tears up watching sitcoms. Hallmark commercials have been known to bring out a tear, or two. He's amazing. And i can't imagine being with anyone else.

  48. Susan Says:

    Just one thing? …William makes me handmade Valentines.

    The mushiest, gushiest song that makes me cry is "I Will Be Here." *sniff*

  49. Barbra Says:

    My dh and I are about to celebrate our 19th wedding anniv. in May! No way. We are still kids, right?

    Anyway, I love that my husband is DETERMINED. He never gives up. Of course, I also really love that he loves adoption and would adopt them all if he could.

    When i actually like whatever you submit here. Really useful in addition to smart. Just one problem though. I’m running Opera having Debian in addition to elements of this present structure portions undoubtedly are a very little wonky. When i understand it’s an excellent standard established. Yet it’s an issue to help keep in mind. When i hope so it will guide in addition to continue to keep up the top excellent publishing.
