Happy Anniversary!
My parents have been married 44 years today. I don’t have a picture from 1965 on my computer, so I’ll share this one from 1985. It was my own wedding day… and it startles me to realize that I’m within a few months of being as old as my mother was when I got married! How could 23 years have possibly gone by so quickly? I’m sure Mother and Dad feel the same way about the 44 years they’ve been married.
A good marriage is truly a treasure to cherish. I wonder how God managed to bring together a farm girl from Oklahoma and a small-town boy from Louisiana to create the home I grew up in? And then, 20 years later, He brought together a southern preacher’s daughter and a California city boy to create the marriage I now enjoy.
I can’t explain it… but I am grateful…

Congratulations to your parents! The Mister and I will be celebrating 40 years in October. I still wonder how God brought us together – and on the front steps of my house no less. I have a feeling that the one’s God brings together tend to last.
