Happy 27th Anniversary!

Here are

27

reasons why I'm thankful
my parents
are
Married:

1. They are a true testimony of love.
   
   
2. Their a good team. She makes me great food and he fixes anything that's broken
   (trust me, that's not all they do for me)
   
   
3. I wouldn't be who I am today, without them.
   
   
4. Their personalities, strengths and weaknesses compliment each other very well.
   
   
5. It makes me happy when I see them hug and kiss in the kitchen.
   
   
6. Without them together, I would never exist, nor would my three great brothers!
   
   
7. They've taught me how to love, even when it's not always easy to.
   
   
8. They have provided a very stable home and environment for me to grow up in.
   
   
9. I wouldn't have such great looks, without them...
   
   
10. God has used each of them together to do great things.
    
    
11. I couldn't imagine life without them happily married.
    
    
12. There is nothing like seeing both my parents get off a train, racing to greet me with hugs.

(This was after the hugging, of course!)

13. They have set an example of what God designed marriage to be.
    
    
14. They have given me hope for my future that true love does exist and it does last.
    
    
15. They make family gatherings very fun, full of laughs, and lots of hugs.
    
    
16. They have shown me how to raise a family to love the Lord and serve Him in everything.
    
    
17. They have been there for me in ways that I don't think would be possible if they weren't married.
    
    
18. They are happy together and it's noticeable!
    
    
19. They have taught me a healthy balance of work and play.
    
    
20. I love them so much, and I'd hate to have it any other way!
    
21. They have a respect for one another and a trust that is unbreakable.
    
    
22. I would have learn even more things the hard way if it weren't for their guidance.
    
    
23. Growing up without either of them would have drastically changed my life.
    
    
24. They are a source of love that I'll always need in my life.
    
    
25. They have shown me what the roles of a man and a woman are inside a marriage.
    
    
26. They are like shampoo and conditioner, they fine on their own but are far better together!
    
    and...

I'm proud of them for still being married, sticking with each other through the thick and the thin, loving each other not matter what, proving to me that it's possible for two people to be in love even after so many years together!

I love you Mom and Dad, so much!
Thanks for being the parents you are and have been.
For loving each other like you do.
It's a true honor to be your daughter and
to witness the love you share.
It will be a blessing to watch the many
more years of love between the two of you!
May God continue to bless your marriage!

Painting in the Sky Trees

"Let the Heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad;


let the sea resound, and all that is in it;

let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them.


Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy;

they will sing before the Lord, for he comes,


he comes to judge the earth.


He will judge the world in righteouness

and the people in his truth."
