This evening, the five of us had supper at Crackerbarrel, to celebrate Jeremy's and my 11th wedding anniversary. When Jeremy asked Sylvia to pray, she thanked God for the opportunity to go on field trips, the beautiful weather we had today, the great stories of history we have to learn about, and, "for bringing my mom and dad together so we could have our family." Yes, there were tears.

"But Jesus said, 'Not everyone is mature enough to live a married life. It requires a certain aptitude and grace. Marriage isn't for everyone. Some, from birth seemingly, never give marriage a thought. Others never get asked—or accepted. And some decide not to get married for kingdom reasons. But if you're capable of growing into the largeness of marriage, do it.'"
-Matthew 19:11-12 MSG
