Half our lives

Today is mine and my husband's wedding anniversary. We have hit a landmark year. No not 20 or 30 years but we have now been married for half of our lives. Together for even longer. We where married young so this wasn't as much of an accomplishment as it would be for those married in their 30's or so but still I am proud!

Sorry on the late congratulations, but any Wedding anniversary is special, and to think you have been married now half your life, that is Special and one worth celebrating especially since you married young and not many marriages last really long anymore. Wishing you many more!!!

Yes we have seen too many of our friends let their marriages go without fighting for them. We are always saddened by this but then we see also that most of them or at least one in each marriage came from broken homes and there fore never saw their folks work things out.

You've made me count if I have hit such landmark... And no, I'd need a few more years to get there... But as for being together, yes, we've been together 63% of my life to be exact...
