I am so glad that
on February 4, 1955, my mom and dad were married. You see I happen to think
that I have two of the most special parents in the world. Their love is
unwavering, and they dealt with us kids firmly, yet fairly and honestly.
I often look at my own son and feel if I could just be half the parent
to him that my mom and dad are to me, I will have done myself proud!! I
love my mom and dad very much and I would not trade them for anything in
the world.
My parents have settled
here in Winnipeg, Manitoba and father is the pastor of Wide World of Faith.
I am so happy to live back close to them and to have them be a closer part
of my life and it is a bonus for our son to have his grandparents close
by.
And another in colour!
This picture is from
several years ago....yep...way before all the gray hair took over.
This is one of the
most current pictures I could get my hands on.
I think they still
look like two teenagers in love!!!
When all is said and
done, I could never find enough words to express how I feel about mom and
dad. They are the most wonderful and understanding parents a girl like
me could have.
I love you very much
mommy and daddy and always will. I may not be perfect and may stumble sometimes;
but just put up with me and know that I am a work in progress and maybe
some bright day there will be a "finished" sign on my forehead!!
Your middle kid.....DJ
