Yesterday I celebrated fourteen years of marriage to my husband. Let’s pause and give thanks that I wasn’t celebrating being married to someone else’s husband. Although, to both be honest, neither he nor I are the same person we were fourteen years ago. I count that as a blessing. I know I’ve changed way more than he has. He’s my rock of Gibraltar.
