Thank you - Regarding my Folks Anniversary

Flash in The Past 4

Last night was very fine as family and a few friends took my folks out for supper. Most all know by now that I am a blogger. I don't know how that got out. But even when you explain the manner that you do it under a nickname it just does not cut it. So one good family friend asked me these pictures were for personal use. I said yes. Thereafter came a request from my father's best friend. He was right as this is not to be something out there form my blog and Mel and his wife where right.

I do think that is their own privacy on yesterday's occassion was to be without a camera. Yet I did take a few in which I will make a CD for them that can be seen by them on Sunday as well as those all within the family which wish to have a copy.

Everyone all enjoyed a meal within a greek restaurant called, "Manos". Beforehand, I went and bought a group of flowers, couple with my own card in which I do write something. As well, I made an arrangement with a carpenter for something to be done for them before Sunday. This shall be something as long as there are no snags in it.  As well I knew that was not something that was for the both of them. So I rendered this carpenter here to makes something that is very symbolic.

When the evening was all over which was fairly early, I dropped them off and knew they had enough as they were rather tired from it all. I think my father could have gone on talking for hours. But I could see in my mothers eyes that she was tired. Mind you she had that light and vibrancy to her she was tuckering out come 8pm.

In making a call from my mother today indicating all the friends that had called as well as some that had from other places in the world. Boy oh boy, I remember telling both of them back some six years that they have to get on the internet in some means - yet they never have while many of there friends have. Yesterday was one very good day with regard to this Anniversary of there's and with all faith taken into account I hope they do have a few more years of good quality of life.

I think between the two of them they do have it. They are older now but it's much like that movie. Well, for that matter to be honest and humble. It is a movie of life and companionship, as it has moved in years and then some.

So everlasting marriage - seems to me they have lived their lives and loved life. So all is good.

  11. It's nice to read of such a happy celebration of this accomplishment.

    I believe we should show respect and restraint regarding posting photos of people on the Internet.

  13. 55 years of being married to each other isn't that long if the concerned couple loves and deeply cared for each other liked what your mom and dad feels towards each other. That is still a short time. Both them were a gift.
    Again ... happy 25th wedding anniversary to your mom and dad. And may they still live a years of blissfulness and togetherness.

    God's blessings tothe both of them as well as to your whole family.

  18. DJ I could not agree with you more. There are areas that I respect and there are areas that I won't post and
    I thin that is to the degree of each and everyone of us. I would like to tend to be a tad respectable on here.
    I am sure you know what I mean. I know you do.

  22. Salaam brother!
    Congratulations! May you all be well and happy!

    And about privacy!
    That's what we read about them these day on the news very often.
    It is about people. When reading different blogs on the internet, it could be seen how different the definition of privacy could be for different people. All could be respected.
