Happy Anniversary!

On November 15th my parents celebrated their 39th Anniversary! I can't even imagine 39 years. I've been married for 5 years and it seems like damn near eternity.
Anyhow, Happy Anniversary to the best parents a girl could ask for. Your marriage and the love you have for each other awes me.
Dad, you have always shown nothing but love and respect for my mom. Even when I know you are really mad or upset with Mom, you never yell. I have never heard you call her a name or say something that would make mom ever doubt your love for her. You have always been a go getter and wanted to provide for your wife no matter what that meant you had to do. You would never dream of doing anything to jeopardize your marriage and you would stick with mom through anything. I am proud to call you my Dad and Happy Anniversary!
Mom, what can I say. You are the greatest. You love dad so much. Even when times are hard, (and I know you have had a few), you guys stick together and work as a team. You always show dad respect and love. I love how even after 39 years of marriage you still "want to look nice" when dad comes home from business trips. I admire you and Dad for the dedication and love you put into your marriage every day. I know the two of you are still so in love after 39 years. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!

WoW! That is a sweet post Heather.
That is something I have always admired about your parents no matter what the always seem to lean on one another. I also would pay close attention to when they would even hold hands going into the Home Depo stores and pretty much anywhere. I find that rare myself to hold my own husbands hand because of the kids now days. I hope that my marriage last an Eternity. I have never seen either one of them mean to one another. To watch them is an a lesson for all of us! Happy Anniversary!!!
