My Prayer

I took the sunset photo the evening of November 3rd, the day which would've been my parents' 51st wedding anniversary. I added a stanza from an old Platters song from the 1950s - "My Prayer" - which was their song. Mom & Dad were married 37 years, 3 months - until my mother passed away at the age of 55. Their marriage wasn't always easy, but it was filled with unconditional love and a lot of laughter and joy. Although I miss my folks a lot, I rejoice in the fact that they finally got to spend their anniversary together for the first time in 14 years.

Happy Anniversary, Mama & Daddy ~ I love you both so much...
