Chapter 5
The Echo
Looking back, what has stayed with you? Did it change anything about you, your life, or the way you see things today?
September is my month. My birthday and our wedding anniversary. Let’s just say my husband has two very good reasons to give me extra attention, buy a few more presents, and remind me how much he loves me. I’m happy to provide reminders if necessary. So much about our wedding turned out differently from what I’d planned. But after fifteen years together, three surprise blessings, two weddings, and a life across two countries and two continents, we still love each other. We’re still sure we were meant to be together. Unexpected things still happen. Of course they do. By now, though, we know we can work through them together—even if I need a little time to complain about the change of plan first.
