41 years......

My parents celebrated 41 years of marriage yesterday. That is just unreal, to know that in today's world, there are still those who love Jesus and each other enough to stay committed to their marriage covenant. They have seen it all- the loss of a child, the loss of parents, kids/grandkids moving to foreign countries, and so much more. I know that we all wouldn't be where we are today if it weren't for their dedication to Him and us. So, thanks Mom & Dad, we love you and hope you had a great day!

Yes, fortyone years is a long time to put up with someone...I don't know how your dad has done it!!! The greatest blessing of yesterday though was getting to v-chat with you and the kids!!! It's been a long time!!! I was disappointed though that you didn't speak in German; I can't wait to hear your McNairy County southern dialect of German!!! And how entertaining it must have been to see you drive...I really hate I missed seeing those first few times!!! I know God will bless you in your work to spread the Good News to the place He has called you. You all are always in my prayers. Mom
