And come to think of it...

Today would have been my parents' 46th wedding anniversary.

Ten years ago there was no reason to suppose they'd not be in the running for breaking marriage records - they'd both married young - she was 19 and he was 21; and I was already having thoughts about Golden Wedding presents - as I'd not had the means to offer much at their Silver event.

That they might just scrape past 41 years together before one of them passed away was completely unthinkable...

Please spare a prayer for my mother - who has probably had quite a bad night, and will have another tonight - she doesn't sleep well at the best of times. Thank-you.
