Memories of a Marriage

This week's theme in Take A Word is MEMORIES. I decided to stick to living people this time and did a tribute to my parents. They have been married for 47 years and has never been a piece of cake... Nevertheless, they are still together. So let's celebrate.

Background: Mariella Corugati; amaryllis: Redoute's (Dover);

  3. I'll celebrate for 47 years! Your collage is a wonderful keepsake. My parents have been married for 60 years, and their marriage hasn't been a calm one, either. But we have all survived!

  13. Beautiful tribute to your parents, Christine. You know that during 47 years of marriage there have been high times and low times. That's life. The longer the two in a marriage persevere, even during tough times, the glue becomes stronger until the two are really one. Speaking from almost 54 years of experience.
