Year 16
This “Fruit of the Spirit Stick” is my anniversary gift to my husband. It will go outside, near the entrance to our home. It is by a Tennessee folk artist we’ve long admired Bebo.
I border on the over-sharing today over at Parenting.com, talking about my marriage, which began 16 years ago today in Miami during a beautiful service and a rocking reception.
Here’s to many more rocking years…








What a blessing Carrie!
Happy 16th Anniversary! You post at Parenting was beautiful. …
… I love the “Fruit of the Spirit Stick” … what a great daily reminder of what’s important … “Love” is the right header … because it’s necessary in a marriage … once “love” reigns … the rest will follow and challenges and other hurdles will be overcome …
I wish you well :) Melek

So… uhm… is the picture cropped, or is there no “self-control” in that Fruit?
Oh, what a trouble-maker I am…. :)
Congratulations! It has been a privilege to watch you (singular and pleural) evolve.
Melek, thank you very much for the kind words and good wishes.
Linda, my eagle-eyed love, indeed, it is cropped because I couldn’t get a good angle otherwise.
“Gentleness” and “Self-control” are the last two fruit! Should be the first, huh?
…and couldn’t have done it without you…xo
Happy Anniversary! Love the post! I think I need to work on keeping my mouth shut more often too…
The Spirit Stick is beautiful!
Felicidades! Here is to many more wonderful years ahead!
