Milestone


Today marks a milestone. 20 years ago today, I married my best friend. I can't believe it's been 20 years! Where has the time gone? Seems like it was just yesterday that we stood before our family and friends and said that we promised to love each other for the rest of our lives. It isn't always easy, but life isn't easy, so we continue to work on loving each other every day, through good times and not so good times, and when we ask God for help and rely on him, things are much easier than when we try to do life by ourselves.
Thanks for the 20 beautiful red roses, babe! Happy Anniversary!!

Chains do not hold a marriage together. It is threads, hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years.
~Simone Signoret
More marriages might survive if the partners realized that sometimes the better comes after the worse.
~Doug Larson
A great marriage is not when the 'perfect couple' come together. It is when an imperfect couple learns to enjoy their differences.
--Dave Meurer
The more you invest in a marriage, the more valuable it becomes.
--Amy Grant
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labor Ecclesiates 4:9
