| Our wedding day - March 25, 1995 |
This week's prompt for Amy Johnson Crow's 52 Ancestors in 52 Weeks is "Valentine".
My valentine for the last 25+ years has been my husband, Don. I feel like, especially now-a-days, 25 years together is kind of a big deal. We've been through a lot of ups and downs. We've had three beautiful daughters together. We've started a business that fortunately has survived 20+ years. We've built two houses. We've lost loved ones. We're far from the "perfect" couple. We fight and make up. Through it all, we have always had each other's back.
We have great role models who have taught us how to love and the importance of family. I thought I would celebrate this Valentine's Day by sharing photos of those that have left a loving legacy for Don and I, and hopefully our children one day.
