In those 19 years, we have....
- lived in 11 houses in 5 cities - 12 if you count a brief 3 month stay with my parents.
- been on the staff of 4 churches.
- birthed 3 daughters.
- written 2 books.
- recorded 1 album.
- had 4 dogs, 2 parakeets, 1 hermit crab, and numerous fish.
- taught Sunday School, several Disciple Nows, and led many marriage conferences.
- hosted 2 radio shows and 2 TV spots.
- said good-bye to 3 wonderful grandparents.
- driven U-Hauls across the country.
- been to the White House at Christmastime.
- been to Disney World 4 times.
- been to 9 countries (and counting!).
- cleaned 4 different swimming pools.
- stood up for issues in the community that resulted in hate mail, crank phone calls, and an ugly email from the Ku Klux Klan - and an unlisted phone number.
- been to countless dance recitals, drama productions, and basketball games.
- sold Girl Scout cookies.
- met famous people, historic figures, and national leaders.
- hosted 32 children's birthday parties and over 100 giggly girl sleepovers.
- learned the words to every single song by Barney and the Backyardigans.
- driven a newspaper route and done some commercial roofing.
- home-schooled 2 children for 7 years.
And of course....
- argued about which one of us has the harder job at least 50 times.
I only hope I can survive the next 19 years!
