My, how time flies. Of course, birds fly, planes fly, and flies fly. But I digress. Time indeed flies. Just a few days ago (somewhere in the neighborhood of 12,250 days) I saw the most beautiful girl in the world at summer camp. Four and a half years later she became my wife. Now, twenty-eight years since then we celebrate another anniversary. I popped into that bastion of modern American commercialism (Walmart) to pick up some roses and some Hostess DingDongs for the love of my life. I was getting home from work about the time she was preparing to leave for work, so I put the goodies on the table and collapsed into bed in the spare room. Twenty-eight years. My, how time flies.
God has richly blessed me over these years, as we have been on this incredible journey together. We have from WI to FL, TX to PA. Now we wait on God to show what He wants us to do and we do so with confidence that God is in complete control. Many of our family and friends face greater challenges, but none have a greater life partner. Bec has been such a huge blessing from God. The roses will fade and the DingDongs are nasty chocolate, but the roses and snack cakes are simple gestures to show how much I appreciate the one that God has allowed me to spend my life with. Thanks Bec. I love you a ton!
