I decided to go through some of our old photos a few weeks ago. I was inspired by Janet Sutherland a while back but I just hadn’t had the time yet so finally I took the time. Digging through our photo box brought me back to really thinking about so many things. Most being the last 20 years Jerry and I have spent together and how incredibly fast time flies. I remembered the moment, the feeling I had when I first heard him sing. I remembered the butterflies in my stomach when I called him and asked him out! (yes I did ask him out) The nerves I felt when his dad answered the phone and I asked to speak to Jerry. The excitement that came over me when Jerry said he would go to the concert with me. I was 16 and had already hoped that I could have something great with this guy! I was right!
Sitting there in my living room floor for those hours were wonderful! Have you ever just sat and looked at old photos? Just really thinking about every memory and being thankful for moments, for the feelings, the laughter, the tears. I had a good cry looking our pictures. Us as young teenagers finding love for the first time, our engagement photos, our wedding photos, the photos of us in the hospital after our beautiful girls were born, the photos of us growing older as a family…I write this to encourage all of you to take a moment and go back and dig through old photos! It is such a rewarding experience! Take the time! I promise you will be glad you did!
