This Thanksgiving day marks a special milestone for my parents. On November 22,1962 my parents began their life together. My Dad loves to tease my Mom about eating a drumstick in her wedding dress. She got a little hungry before walking down the aisle, and so she helped herself to some leftover turkey.
There are so many things I could list that I am thankful for, but this year more than any I am aware of the wonderful heritage my parents have given me. They came from backgrounds that were extremely different and yet their love has lasted through all the tests that it has gone through. I have seen them suffer immense loss and yet their faith and their love have never wavered.
They refused to let me throw them a party. I got the usual "you spend that money on those boys" routine. Rest assured though, the day will not go by without some celebration. I pray that God will grant them many more happy years together, and will use them as an example for many others.

How wonderful to have the heritage of parents like yours! You have been very blessed and that shows in your own life. I don't know them well, but enjoyed them the few times we have met. Your dad was always so much fun when we would hang out at your place.
Thanks for sharing!
