Twenty Years

Last week my husband and I celebrated our twentieth wedding anniversary.  Twenty years!  It's hard to believe.  I have now spent almost half my life married.

In twenty years so much has happened in our lives:

We have had four children.

We have shared six homes in three different states.

We have been members of five churches.

We have worked and lived and loved and played together.

I don't really feel much older than my 21 year old self, although I'm sure I look it.  I'm certainly a better cook than I was in those early days, and unfortunately my waistline shows it.

Twenty years is a long time to get to know someone, but I hope we get another twenty years (or two) to share.

I think this is what being blessed means.
