The threads that connect us

Happy 27th anniversary to us!
How could two sweet young things know all that life would place before us?


5 pregnancies, 4 kids
4 homes,
11 jobs
2 post-marriage college degrees
1 lost parent
4 cats
12 vehicles
a serious illness or two
4 dishwashers, 3 microwave ovens, umpteen vacuums 
Sad times
Happy times
Near financial ruin
 
Chains do not hold a marriage together.  It is threads, hundreds of tiny threads which sew people together through the years.  ~Simone Signoret

Happy Anniversary! I love to see wedding photos :) It is funny to think about all the changes we go through in a marriage. I wonder if we would have believed it if we had looked into a crystal ball on our wedding days?
