I see and hurt for my wife and what I put her through. But, hearing seeing how this affected Abishai is one of the things that I still have a VERY hard time dealing with within myself...even after over 2 years being back home. I see in the pictures that we taken right after I came home and there is absolutely no joy in either boys eyes, but Abiahai's is clearly more visible more than Ezekiel's. I hate knowing what I had done to my son's spirit. He had lost his smile.<br /><br />But, thanks be to the Awesome, Healing God that Serena and I serve! Abishai is one of the most joy-filled, active boys I know. He is the epitome of the classic boy...getting into things, breaking things, and being at the root of mischief like only a boy can do. His smile is captivating and it lights up his face. He likes nothing more than trying to rough up his daddy. And there is not much more that this daddy enjoys more than to be roughed up by his son.<br /><br />Another great post, Babe. As hard as some of this has been to read, it is good that it is being written. By you writing this, it takes the power out of the enemy's hands and enables us to fight a more fierce battle together against him. Even though it stings, this is necessary for the completion of both of our healings. I love you so much! And I am incredibly proud of your courage to write...to allow friends and complete strangers alike to see through us and see the God that held us together through the storm. I am glad that you are MY virtuous wife.Josh Abdelazizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12212507786201222816noreply@blogger.com
