15 Years



Tonight we celebrated our 15th anniversary with dinner at our favorite restaurant. Awaiting me at our table was the collection of 15 red roses, one for every year we've been married. At some point this tradition might get a little crazy but for right now, the rose bush is managable :) These great candy signs were on our dessert plates (along with some mighty fine desserts!). I thought that was such a nice touch! We have both been musing this past week that if we had known 15 years ago that we'd be getting ready to bring our 5th child home, homeschooling, running a successful business - well we might have high tailed it out of there :) Instead, God has given us each step as we needed it and the path behind us has been one of joy and fullfillment beyond what either of us could ever have hoped for. I am so thankful for my wonderful husband - I can't imagine being on this journey without him!
I love you Ken!!!!!
