Family

A picture of a couple holding hands in the park

When I saw my husband for the first time, I believed in him and I was sure he will be a good man. A long time ago, I left my family to complete my education in Syria, because in Saudi Arabia, I could not attend or join any university or college to finish my education. My brother and I lived in Syria at that time, as he was working, and I was a student in college. I had finished my education when I met my husband by coincidence. It was beautiful coincidence! He is as close to a perfect spouse as any woman could hope for. He has always pushed me to the best I can and has supported me when I was disappointed. He always believes in me and encourages me to complete my education and now to improve my English. He has been teaching me for two years to drive the car, and I finally did it! I have a licence and it is all thanks to him. He is kind, patient and a great father to our kids. I wish every woman was as lucky as I am. Always I ask my God to bless him.
