My Mom and Dad on their wedding day in 1957
My Mom and Dad in 2007!
My Mom and Dad (Bob and Ginny!) have now been married 53 years. That is one, among many, of the greatest gifts they have given me... their long lasting marriage.
My parents have taught me so much. They are loving, they are kind, they are generous, they love the Lord and brought us up to know Him. My Mom and Dad are one of my greatest sources of peace and security. Even now, at the age of 40, I depend on them in so many ways.
It's funny to me to hear others talk about how miserable they would be if they had to live at home with their parents. Because Dwayne and I (and Gracyn) do live at home with my parents! That's how much we love them! (We live in our own apartment in their basement.) And every night, when I say bedtime prayers with Gracyn, we thank God for the privilege to be here with them.
And although I've always loved and respected them both, the longer I know them, the more I realize how amazing they are! And how absolutely blessed I am that God gave them to ME!!!
