This past Wednesday Nicole and I celebrated our 25 year wedding anniversary. I can’t believe how time flies. I feel so blessed to spend everyday with my favorite person in the whole world. Relationships are a lot of work but it’s worth every effort to cultivate a long lasting, loving relationship. To the younger generation, be patient, loving and kind to each other. Never stop working on your relationship. It’s a beautiful journey with peaks and valleys, joy and happiness, frustration and challenges, and sometimes even sadness, but most importantly love, and having your partner by your side through it all is the greatest blessing!
