Married in Love

                         

The hands of a farmer and his wife, this morning, on the day they celebrate fifty years of married life. Together. Happily. As they have been and will be. Thank you Mom and Dad for showing us how to hold on and give love.

  12. please wish your parents a happy anniversary for me :)!!!! your photo is such a lovely tribute to their years of love and commitment. looking at it fills my heart with joy. i hope you have a wonderful family celebration. my writing teacher laurie wagner wrote a book called “happily ever after” about long married couples. it is fascinating to read how different each relationship is, and yet the thread linking them all together is a sense of humor and generosity of spirit. i have an extra copy that i would love to give to you to share with them. let me know if this would be possible to arrange somehow. cheers and blessings to all!
