Today is my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary. It’s hard to believe that they’ve been married for 50 years! Their love for each other has truly stood the test of time. In a world where people often take the easy way out, they’ve persevered through good times and bad by putting in the hard work and effort it definitely takes to have a successful and happy marriage. Sure, they’ve had their disagreements and challenging times, but through it all, one thing has remained constant — their undying love and respect for one another.
Congratulations Mom and Dad on this major milestone! We’re all so happy for you!

So as I raise my virtual champagne glass, I say, “Here’s to you Mom and Dad. Congratulations on 50 wonderful years of marriage! Happy Anniversary! We love you dearly!”
Until next time, here’s a kiss and a smile! 🙂
