A true testament to love, my parents are celebrating their 30th wedding anniversary today. Congratulations Mom and Dad! Thank you for being a wonderful example of a loving, committed covenant between two incredible people.
I have had the privilege of being part of their life for 24 years now, and it’s only been in the last 4-5 years that I have taken note of what love truly is in their marriage. Of course it’s all of the “I love you’s,” and hugs and kisses and opening doors and being asked to dance; but it’s also being comfortable with one another, understanding, giving, taking, and remembering that the other person is always on your side no matter what. I think I have especially taken note that now that their kids are all grown and raised, they still enjoy one another’s company—maybe even more so now than when they first met.
I have heard of couple’s losing sight of their relationship because they were busy raising the kids, and then when the kids left, they found nothing in common. I don’t see that with my mom and dad. They laugh together, they go out together, and they are learning about wine together—they understand each other. It’s really a pretty amazing thing to watch and to one day strive for. Again, thank you. I love both of you dearly.
Todo mi amor,
Jessica Lynn
