Today, we celebrated our 51st anniversary and not a single one of our children wished us Happy Anniversary. I don't think they realize how blessed THEY are to have parents that have stuck it out and with the help of God, made it this far. Don't want to have a pity party here but it does hurt not to be recognized for something that is very exceptional in this day and age. I only hope that one of them can say as much a few year down the road.
It's been a rainy day - all day - but we had 18 straight days of sunshine and it IS October 13th - so you really can't complain. It's coming and nothing we can do will hold it back.
I got a beautiful bouquet as I have for many years now. One red rose for every decade and white for the odd years. If I knew how to post a picture I would and I think I'll research that cause they need to be seen and remembered after they've all wilted and died.
We are going out to dinner and then we'll be home to spend the evening the way most 70 year olds do. About the BEST thing that happened today was when Hank came over and stayed awhile and talked and talked and talked. He is in such turmoil and I pray to God, HE will get hold of him and show him he really needs HIM in charge of his life. Just to surrender. He worry's about Nathan, although he never says so, but I know the feeling and don't know HOW I would have gotten through it all without my Saviour.
Guess this really is turning into a type of diary and it's okay. Makes me feel better just to put my feelings down on "paper".
