What do we do for our 20 year anniversary ?
Hard to believe but our wedding anniversary of 20 years is around the corner . I remember getting ready with the last minute details as if it were yesterday . We have talked about flying to Chicago and staying in a beautiful hotel way up high to see the skylight at night and site see for a couple of days . Whatever we do , I love a great dinner with atmosphere and all that yummy romantic stuff . As I look back over the 20 years we have spent together I am so grateful . With my husband I have learned about life . I was 25 , almost 26 when we were married . I was naive , young , simple , implusive , and had no idea what marriage involved . But , I knew I had NEVER felt this kind of love before . We are in the most rewarding and exciting time in our marriage . Our children are growing up . I have such wonderful conversations with them . We have our health . We have so many friends who truly love us for what we are . We have great jobs . We have a home . We have a wonderful church to attend . We have history . Sure not all the stuff in our book is rosey and fluffy . We haven't had the perfect life . No , infact , we have had a glorious life . Real glory . The kind of glory that becomes more cleary defined with time and age . The glory felt after giving all you've got for something you believe in , leaving nothing left behind . The glory you feel from simply being there and knowing you are in the right place . The glory in wanting the best , believing the best and fighting for the best . Glory . So...... what do we do for our anniversary ? I really don't know or have a great plan , but whatever we do I am sure it will be a glorious time . Afterall , isn't it glorious just to be loved ?
