Road to Indonesia----49th Anniversary.

 We forgot until about 3 p.m. this afternoon that today is our 49th weddng anniversary.  It is always in some way related to the busy time around the beginning of school. Tonight was the parent/teacher open house and we were busy teaching and then with the meeting.  I had remembered earlier in the week, but just not today.  Rick came into the classroom after school and reminded me. It does not mean that we do not love and appreciate each other. It just means that we are busy.  We also have no real place to go. No transport, and semi locked down.  So we ate the supper which the school had prepared for teachers for staying late.  We are home and soon will head to bed. I could write much about the many years together and how we basically work very well as a team. I could write how our outlook on life has made it possible for us to travel and support each other through  so many transitions.  I could write about our 4 lovely children and 5 grandchildren which are the result of our marriage.  I could write about our joy in our work and our commitment to God's direction for the future.  I could write about our love for each other through so many ups and downs. We have decided that next year we are doing a shindig for our 50th. Or at least we have told the kids that they are hosting a shindig for us. haha.  It will be the end of July (because of school, again) and we think it will be at a park in PA.  We are ready to celebrate our long years of mutual support and vastly interesting living.  Can you come?
