Last Sunday was, not only Father’s Day, but also our 47th Wedding Anniversary! We feasted on old wedding photos, and stepped back 4 decades through delightful photographs of our own 3 babies, and watched them grow again. What a delight they were, and what a blessing they now are. Back in 1974, we wondered what our family would look like….girls? boys? how many? what would they look like? what kind of people would they become? And, now, we know. How delighted we would have been back then. Our lives have been built upon each other…we’ve all added threads to our family tapestry, and those blend so well and make a precious picture.
And to have a partner through it all…a buddy. That’s like having your cake and eating it too! He has been my trusted ‘side-kick’ for so long that I don’t function well without him.
