Hooray for #38



This past week we celebrated our 38th wedding anniversary with dinner and a movie--a very nice way to celebrate the fact that we're still together and going strong. I have been shocked and saddened lately to hear of family members and friends who have divorced after many years together, so I know not to take 38 years for granted--we don't necessarily have it made! We have to keep working on our relationships if we want them to last. I'm so lucky to have ended up with my best friend, who is as committed to us and our family as I am. I asked him if he wanted to try for another 38 years and when he figured out how old we'd be, he decided that we'd better go for eternity instead. So here's to many more years of happiness together on earth and an eternity of happy years later!
