In the Midst of it All
Richcreek is our name. The simplicity behind it, it's my married name. However; it is a name I treasure. I'm Emily, I'm a wife, a mom, a student, a worker, and a know-it-all. I married the best man for me, gifted to me by God and His diligence. I married Dakotah J. Richcreek. A simple, outspoken and genuine man. He lives with a generalized nonverbal learning disorder. It makes him unique, and all the more loveable. I live with General Anxiety Disorder (GAD). Together we have been married since 2016. Technically together since 2014. We met in 2012 and Dakotah chased me until I said yes to be his girlfriend. It all went up from there. His family accepted me with open arms, where my family teased Dakotah he would never be good enough for me, and Dakotah agreed. He knows he will never be good enough, and I will never be good enough for him. Together we make it happen. We go to church together and study our bible together. Not as often as we should, yet we try. We know the importance of each other, and view each other as a blessing. We are not a fake happy husband and wife. We have our genuine disputes. More often than not it's me and my emotions and anxiety that cause problems. He still loves me. More often than not it's his attitude that causes the problems. I still love him. We both proclaim God as our sovereign king. That Jesus Christ died and rose again, saving us. Giving us a choice to accept Him as Lord and Savior. I have been a Christian since the tender age of 5. I didn't fully grasp the transition to Christianity till I was 12. Then and only then did I know what it truly meant to experience the Love of Christ. I was baptized twice, first at 8 years old. I feel I didn't understand the true emotional expense that came of it, I was once again baptized at 16. That was a turning point for me. I've been in love and service of God since. Dakotah became a Christian in 2015 and only after our few years together. First as friends from 2012-2014. In 2014 we started dating. 2015 we got engaged, and in the fall of 2015 Dakotah was baptized. He was made new. Together we raise a family. Currently our 2-year-old daughter Amanda and our 4-month-old son Gabriel. Both are blessings and lessons. Whether the lesson would be in patience or understanding. Blessings in their laughter and smiles. They are both brilliant and wonderful heaven-sent children. I am biased, my children are my future and my heart. My husband may say his children are there to take care of him when he's older. Of course, he teases like any dad properly should. This is us, this is growing Richcreeks.
