“What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.” Mark 10:9
Today, my hubby and I celebrate our 30th anniversary. Seems impossible! We’re enjoying our time away in the beautiful Carolina mountains and making more memories together.
My heart is grateful, I know I am super blessed, and I don’t ever want to take our marriage or this occasion for granted. I realize a lot of people never make it to thirty years together for one reason or another.
We’ve been through a lot in thirty years, I won’t pretend it’s been nothing but moonlight and canoes; but God has been faithful and has held us together through each and every obstacle we’ve faced - the biggest, I think, being the death of our son almost four years ago. I didn’t want to take time to search for the statistics but I’ve read in the past that the death of a child is extremely hard on a marriage and they often end in divorce. Just one more reason to be a little more thankful for our union and the glue that holds us together. God.
So, today I’m thankful. I’m also heading into today looking forward to our next thirty years, if the Lord tarries. We married young, eighteen and nineteen, so we’ve grown up and together. I’m looking forward to growing old(er) together too. What an adventure!
Happy Anniversary to us! We are blessed to celebrate this milestone together - and that we still enjoy each other’s company after all these years.
