The Wright Family in November 1990 (me at 20 years old!)
Wow, here is our family right around this time 21 years ago..goodnight, I am getting old! Ted just called while I was blogging and I told him I couldn't believe I was looking at a picture that was 21 years old, and we already had two children..he reassured me that it happens to everyone, and the other alternative was to be dead. I'll take old. (I am 41..is that middle-aged? Ted says it is.)
In all seriousness, I thank the Lord that we are still together and still serving the Lord. Has it always been an easy road..not on your life. I am glad I couldn't see some of the trials. I am reminded of a song played by a grieving husband at his young wife's funeral called The Dance." And I, I'm glad I didn't know, the way it all would go, the way it all would end. Our lives were better left to chance. I could have missed the pain, but then I'd have had to miss the dance." We've seen many happy times, many sad times, but I thank God we are still together, and Lord willing, we will celebrate 24 years of marriage on the 24th of December.
And for a few more gifts..
16) I am thankful for a mother who supports me in all I do. (I love you sooo much Mom!)
17) The laundry is almost caught up, for today!
18) I have a friend who never gives up on me, and I pray she never will!
19) Peace in the midst of pain.
20) Food in the freezer, thanks to my might hunters!
