Happy Anniversary to My Mom and Dad

Today is my parent's 53rd wedding anniversary. They're proof that 2 people with very differing personalities can make a commitment and stick with it through adversity. I've said it before and I will say it again, my parents gave me a most wonderful, blessed childhood and upbringing. I hope I am half the person both of them are.


The quality of this old snapshot is poor but I have always loved this little photo of them. Looking at it more closely, I just might be in that photo too, because that looks suspiciously like a baby bump on Mom's tummy.

Noooowww we know where you get your long, long, long legs.

Your parents did an awesome job raising their daughter.

Yes, I'm at least 5 inches taller than Mom is, but she does have long legs.

Happy Anniversary to your parents! Seems these days longevity for marriages are becoming rare. Love the picture too.
