Year Number 25

Today marks the day that Tom and I were married.  It has now been 25 years.  Wow.  So much has happened in those years. There has been happy, sad, stressful and exciting times.  But, mostly there has been a lot of growth and more bonding together than I could have imagined.

Many people say that when they get married they marry their best friend or something like that.  Well, I have to admit that I couldn't really say that then.  I think now I can.  I am now married to my best friend.  I think it takes a lot of time to "knit" your souls together and form a very strong bond.  As the Beatles say, I love him more today than yesterday.

I am so grateful that I married Tom.  He is truly a wonderful man.  I know that Heavenly Father had a great hand in bringing us together.  There are just too many things that had to happen to be a mere coincident.

Thanks to Tom for a great 25 years.

Happy Anniversary Karen!
I really like the way you explained marriage. Too sad that so many quit before they get to the really good years.

I'm a little late, so happy belated anniversary. I agree that it takes time to become each other's best friend...that happened to Pappy and me. We celebrated 35 years in April. HOPE you have a great summer!!!
