Sacrifices!

An ear of corn on the fire. The last ear of corn in the fridge, given to me, by my husband.

Sacrifices! Years of them. Him to Me....Me to Him, some very willingly, some, not so much.

Give and take, share and give in. Years and years of them. Him to Me...Me to Him, some willingly, some, NOT whole-heartedly.

Joy and pain, laughter and tears. Years and years and years of them. Him to Me...Me to Him, some unintentionally, some purposefully.

An ear of corn, given in love, I like to think so.

Sacrifices, years of them, given in LOVE, some willingly....MANY out of the HEART.

This our anniversary weekend. Monday, August 16th is the official day. Years and years, 30 of them to be exact. Young, so very young, we grew up together basically. Many years by trail and error, trail by fire...flat out trail. Sacrifices, giving, preserving, breaking, hurting, laughing, growing, sharing...But by the grace of God, this is certain.

An ear of corn, or a lifetime of sacrifices, given willingly, given in LOVE.
