For the past 14 years, I have written an anniversary blog as a gift to my tender-hearted, patient, love of my life, husband John.
But now it may be time to just live together and enjoy the years the Lord gives us.
For the next 14 days I am revisiting those anniversary posts so I can remember and appreciate and learn again the lessons.
But I also want to encourage my readers to stay the course, don’t give up, trust in God, learn the lessons, and enjoy the process. There are ups and downs and “ all-arounds” in any long term relationship, and most especially a committed marriage.
I’m adding some “content” here — the list of titles of those 14 years, so you know what you can look forward to.
54 years — 54 Years and Still Counting
53 years — My Home Away from Home, but Wait!
52 years — Together: a Letter to my Beloved Husband

According to our daughter Beth (FB 2026) ,
“Babci and Poppi went Trick or Treating with us as their authentic selves, AKA the dynamic duo “Awesome Grandparents”. Thank you, my sweet Beth!
