Hi everyone,
Just wanted to share that on Thursday we'll be celebrating our 31st anniversary together (not counting the 2 years we dated). The funniest thing is that people are constantly telling us that we're the most 'odd-matched' couple they've ever met and it makes us laugh.
We hardly ever agree on politics, most religious topics, and all sorts of stuff, but here we are just making it work every day. We've learned how to work together as a team and to always put each other's interests before our own, to be feather dusters instead of jackhammers, to be respectful and kind and if not that, at least to be civil and courteous while working through issues (since we have an endless supply of issues to work on).
My husband tells and shows me every day how much he loves me and I do the same for him; May not work for everyone but it sure has worked for us.
The best thing that's happened to us lately is that our kids have both told us they wanted to be good parents to their kids as we are to them. That makes an ole mama and papa very happy.
Certainly not perfect, Just sitting here smiling and counting my blessings.
