Today is our 15th Wedding Anniversary!
F i f t e e n y e a r s .
When Nathan P. Jones walked into my life we knew within 6months that we wanted to get married (not so unique) but we didn’t get around to it for another 2years (I thought I was the most long-suffering fiancĂ©!) It was nathan’s mom who casually pulled out a calendar one day and flipped through it and pegged us down to a month and a day. She’s cool like that. As it turns out our babes were more long suffering as they waited 10years for us to grow up and decide it was time for them to join us. (love those babes in mylife!)
I am so grateful for my marriage and the way Nathan&I have grown together and the way we will continue to progress together. I feel that’s what the concept of eternal marriage teaches me the most: Progression. With Gods involvement we grow, we change, we improve and in the process our love and commitment deepens and our happiness together is more sure. I have a belief in my ability and Nathan’s ability to live this out and to become more like the type of person the other wants to be with eternally – it’s a way of living consciously with the decision we made long ago to be together and it steadies us when we need to remember.
