32 years. Mood
Friday, May 9, 2008

Today is my parent's anniversary, They were married this day 32 years today, May 9th. My sister, brother and I cleaned up and got things ready for them. Every year we ask them if they want to go out together, and they always insist on having a nice dinner with us. There was the normal family arguing and complaing that lasted for a short while. We always come together though despite the words here and there.

 

I always have imagined having a nice family like mine.  Despite everything that I did, they have loved me unconditionally. I am so grateful for my mother, for my father, and lucky that they stuck it out for us. Through the hard times, the changes. and the better times ahead, they have remained anchored together for so many years.

    That is wonderfual to hear, Sarah, mine are coming up on 36 years on the 27th. It really does give you hope, that in a world so rife with divorce and separations, you can find someone and make it work.

    Happy anniversary to your parents. You will definitely find that same love. You have lived it already and you know best. I guess we all have to go through the ups and downs first and then in the end it was all worth it. hugs
