40 yrs.


Today we are celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary.
In the last 40 years I have gained
some  insight into the thinking of a man,
seven children,
and a few pounds.
 
But mostly I have gained the pleasure that comes with sharing and serving and being loved. 
 
 
The gemstone for the 40th anniversary is Ruby.
So I was surprised with these ruby and diamond earrings this morning.
 
I think I'll keep him.

Congrats, Robin! That is a milestone. We are coming up on 35 years.
I love the list of what you have "gained", and that is a very sweet surprise you received.

Congratulations on the 40th anniversary. I like to see long marriages. We will celebrate our 50th this summer.
