I am going to jump right in about the long marriages in my family! My parents were married over 25 years when he decided the grass was greener on the other side and divorced my mother and married a woman (I won't say lady) for 2 years and then begged my mom to take him back, which she did and they were married a total of over 60 years before his death. My oldest sister has been married 60 years, the next one (who is only 3 years older than I am but married at 15) will celebrate 60 years in Dec. I've been married 46 years and my youngest sister has been married almost 48 years. My husband's side of the family is one of longevity in marriages also, his parents were married over 50 years and a brother has been married over 50 and another one was married over 50 before his wife died and his older sister has been married 47 years and his younger sister has been married for 41 years. I'm sure we've all had our bad times but as the rest of you "we've stuck together" and are stronger for it. So congratulations to us all! Even you youngsters with 2 years of marriage! (This is the first BOOK I've ever written...I hope it didn't bore you with the length of it!!!!)
