Today is our 34th anniversary and we almost forgot about it. That has never happened before! Last year on this day we were celebrating on the beaches in Hawaii. This year we talked about our anniversary several times over the past couple of weeks, but because of the economy we chose to NOT buy gifts for each other, but we would just go out to dinner. For me, it is enough that we are still together. George's health has been on the blink for the past 24 years from severe chest pains to chronic neck pain. He has had 34 surgeries (about 30 of them during our married life) and there were many times that I was afraid that I would be a young widow and would have to raise our children alone. But THANKS to our Heavenly Father, who chose to keep him here on earth, we have raised our children TOGETHER.
I am so grateful for my sweet husband. Our life together has not been an easy one. We have both been very very stubborn, stiff necked, and bull headed. We have made life so much harder than it needed to be, but we chose to stick it out together. Now that all of our children are raised and moved from home, we are finding more time for each other, showing more patience and love, and I am so
very very grateful that we have had this time to literally FALL IN LOVE AGAIN.
