DREAMS COME TRUE FOR ME
Today is our 45th anniversary. Yesssss!!! We met when I was 15 and he was 16 years old. A few months after I turned 16 we started dating. It seems like yesterday. Where did the almost 49′ years go?
My older brother (10 months older than me) was in a band with Richard. When I met my husband and the more I got to know him, I thought he was the nicest guy I had ever met. I remember telling my brother that if I ever had a boyfriend like Richard, I would do everything to make it work. He was very polite and courteous. We were friends for about 3 months and went places with my brother and other friends.
Then one day he let me know that he liked me. I was a little upset because it took him so long to let me know. He told me that my brother told him I didn’t like guys to flirt with me. Which was true. He then told him not to ask me out or I would probably quit talking to him. I told my brother that I was talking about his other friends but not Richard. This was in 1965.
We were married four years later. It was the greatest day of my life. My father, who had abandon my mother and I along with my five brothers, never showed up to the wedding. I waited in the back of the church for him to walk me down the aisle and when I realized he wasn’t coming, I asked my little brother to walk me down. I didn’t care because I knew I was marrying the greatest man I had ever met and he loved me. It was in 1969 that I married my best friend and this man I would spend the rest of my life with.
Life has not been problem free, but we have been committed to each other every day of our married life.
I give God all the honor and glory because He has been the lover of our soul. Without Him we are nothing and can do nothing.
Yes, dreams do come true with the leading of the Holy Spirit. IT HAPPENED TO ME!!
NOTE: Daily there is a new post to help our marriage succeed.

Anyways I was about to chew out George as he walked throw the door about something so little & stupid but as I was reading the Holy Spirit quickly convicted me to keep my mouth shut & just let it go because if I don’t one little nag can ruin the whole weekend & I don’t want that to happen lol
