Happy 31st Anniversary!!

My parents are celebrating their 31st anniversary today!!  They have been the best parents I could ask for.  I have seen how they have survived the tough times of being separated by distance during each of our moves (something Brett and I will most likely have to go through with his career).  I have seen how Dad provides for us despite his pain from all his surgeries, keeping us at the center of his thoughts.  I've seen how Mom has served Dad through the pain, how she is patient and nurturing.  I've seen how if you keep the Gospel at the center of your relationship, you can defy the world's idea of marriage.  Thank you Mom and Dad for your gift to me: your marriage for me to witness.  I love you two!
