Yesterday was our 29th Anniversary….
So young and foolish ……we though we had the world by the tail. .
We’ve had a roller coaster of a ride but, we did it together.
Someone recently asked how we made it when so many didn’t. Easy answer…. We started with the same thought “marriage was not a disposable union”. The comment “divorce never…murder maybe” was our answer. Since neither of us would do well in jail, there was lots of prayer, respect for each other, compromise and learning to forgive each other for not being perfect.
He’s been my guideon and rudder…my partner, my best friend. The person I respect more than any other. I’m so thankful when needed he’s stood behind & pushed…. in front and pulled me along. But most of all…. beside me all these years.

Delete29 years is very special. I am very happy for you. Glad you knew the formula. Even if there are roller coasters,knowing that Jesus is at the center of your relationship will keep it on the tracks.
ReplyDeleteYour dress looks much like the one I made for my daughter Angela.
Evy, you hit the nail on the head. All issues go to God and he helps sort them out. We learned the hard way not to let little things become big ones. I think the dresses are similar....The photo of her in white?
DeleteCongrats! Good for you, what a blessing you are to each other. Especially in a throw away world, where very little is precious anymore. Very happy for you. Here's to 29 more!
ReplyDeleteThanks Izzy!

ReplyDeleteThanks Sandy, I'll sure be lucky if he puts up with me for another 29 LOL!
DeleteWhen I lost the computer last week, I missed this. Congratulations. I love that "marriage is not a disposable union". I may be quoting that in the future.
