33 years ago

I am looking back 33 years. On this day, I was 2 days from marrying my childhood sweetheart, both of us at the age of 17. Wow. We were young. Were we stupid? Maybe. But we were ready to be to together for the rest of our lives. And we were so in love. Possible at that young age? It was for us. Something was real, because on Friday September 3, we will have been married for 33 years. I am proud of such a great accomplishment. Has it always been easy??? NOT A CHANCE!!! But we have always tried to work things out. And I am so proud to be married to Mr Rick Blackburn, I was then and I still am today. This marriage has produced three children and two grandchildren, that we are so very proud of and love very much. Our life has been mighty blessed and I don't want to take any part of it for granted. So on this Friday, September 3, Happy anniversary Honey!!! I Love You!!!

When I look at you two and know you like I do I think of the song "Look at Us". Still together after all that we've been through is on of the lines. You two have been blessed in many ways. But I know that you have both haven't had it easy and some of the things that you two have gone through would have broken many others. But you hung onto your love and your faith and you have been triumpant. You have both been an inspiration to many. Your dedication to each other, your family and your faith has touched more lives than you will never know on this side of home. I pray that you will continue to let the Lord work with you and through you. And may He continue to bless you. And if we never meet again this side of Glory, I will meet you by that beautiful shore.
