Thank you everyone! We have had our trials some our own bad decisions and some things we couldn't control but the Lord has blessed us with a wonderful family and yes I know the things we go through make us better people. I believe the Lord allows us to go through certain situations to learn things we need to learn. I just wish I had learned alot of those things sooner than later!! LOL Seems like I kept repeating alot of the same mistakes over and over again until I finally got it right!!! LOL
Glen and I both come from a background that believes you get married to stay married. But out of 9 kids in Glen's family 2 have never been married and Glen is the only one to get married and stay married. No exes to deal with no step kids or other difficult situations arising from a broken home. But we do see it in his brother's lives. I do have grandkids that are joined to the family by marriage and love them very much. Just glad we haven't had the trials of a broken marriage. Our trials just took a differant turn than most people's. A head injury affects the rest of your life and we live with it every day.
I have never advised my kids to get married the way we did tho!! We only knew each other 4 mos when we got married.
But it was def the right decision. I love him with all my heart and would go through it all again even if I knew it was coming.
