25 years ago today, Gary asked me to marry him, and 25 years ago tomorrow I accepted his proposal. Hard to believe it was that long ago. Even harder to believe he's not here to celebrate with me. But this isn't a sad post--it's a grateful post. I'm so grateful for the time we DID have together. I love Gary with all my heart and miss him tons and tons. So I'm even more grateful for our Heavenly Father's plan that makes it possible for us to be together forever. I taught a Sharing Time lesson today about that plan (and only teared up a little bit in Junior Primary)--what a blessing to know who we are, where we came from, why we are here on earth, and where we will go after this life.
So thanks to Gary for asking me to marry him and for making the last (almost) quarter century a great ride. I love you!
Great post! Wish my perspective were always as good as this (there were tears in my eyes as I read it). Keep on keepin' on!
