The first day I met Philip, I went back to my apartment and told my friend "I just met the man I'm going to marry." I was completely joking, of course, because I didn't even know his name! I just thought he was very cute. I mean, who doesn't love an unshowered, unshaven, long-haired hippy man? I guess God really had that in the plans the whole time!
I'm currently working at an amazing non-profit called Rape Victim Advocacy as a Rural Youth Education Coordinator. I also supervise volunteers, counsel and advocate for victims of sexual assault, and other various things. I absolutely love my job, and the kind and empowering women with whom I work.
I have a Masters degree in Public Health, and someday I would like Philip and myself to SAVE THE WORLD! One stray dog at a time...we miss you Nickey! Pollock is the newest desire of my heart. She's our 1 1/2 year old labradoodle. Pollock is extra spunky and entirely too affectionate.
I have traveled to 15 different countries, and hope to add to that repertoire in the near future.
My family is so caring and loving, and I thank God every day for them. Bryan is my dad, Charity is my mom, and Brad is my 21 year old (and every ounce of the age) brother. He keeps us on our toes, but has more love in his heart than any man I know.
Most importantly, I am a fervent follower of my Savior. He is the reason that Philip and I made it through the last three years, and He is the one who will keep our love brimming until the end.
What a blessed life I have!
Thank you all for being a part of it. Family and friends are an incredible gift, and I am forever thankful for you.
Much love,
Kristin
