August 9 would have been my parents 40th wedding anniversary. I remember celebrating with them their 25th anniversary. The picture on their 25th Anniversary shows all of us kids together with mom and dad. They were married in Watertown, South Dakota.
Not a day goes by that I still don't think of them or that I don't miss them. They say that time heals but it doesn't ever heal the spot in your heart where you miss someone. You learn to adjust and to go on without them.
The biggest regret that I have is that they never met the girls. I know that they are here in our hearts and are with us in spirit but that isn't the same. I wish that they were able to see them,play with them and talk to them. I wish that they had a relationship with them. That is being selfish only because that means that they would be here still and I wouldn't miss them.I would take selfish anyday over not having them here.
Happy Anniversary Mom and Dad. I hope you can still feel the love and know that you are missed every day.
