any "deep" relationship takes work (duh, kati). friendships, family.....we're familiar with the "get back up again" phase that comes when the rougher seasons hit. and marriage - the closest of relationships, which the Bible defines as becoming one flesh - i'm just a marriage-rookie, so i don't want to sound presumptuous, or knowledgeable.......but i know my relationship with mike is already the hardest and most rewarding i've ever known.
and so, to see a couple that we respect mark their 40th anniversary is such happiness!!!! we feel respect for the marriages around us that persevere, and pursue being in love with each other - we aim to do the same, and watching you gives us hope and excitement to follow you!
so we wish mom and pop a happy 40th anniversary!!! it is such a huge marker, and testimony to God's grace, and an example to this baby marriage that's watching - thank you for loving each other, and for the mentoring you've already given to us!
