To My Mom and Dad

I dedicate this post to my two wonderful parents Colin & Crystal Michael who celebrate 25 years of marriage today.

"Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour.
And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken." - Ecclesiastes 4: 9, 12

My parents met in the Navy sometime in 1982 and began a friendship which led into my dad's salvation and a whirlwind courtship. They were married in a little country church on October 6th, 1984.


I'm posting pictures from Persuasion here and especially the Crofts because they remind me of my parents and this Persuasion film is mom and dad's favorite Jane Austen story.

"If I loved a man as she loves the Admiral, I would be always with him, nothing should ever separate us, and I would rather be overturned by him than driven safely by anybody else." - Louisa Musgrove, Persuasion by Jane Austen

Mom and dad, thank you so much for your love and support over my 22 years. Thank you for working hard to make our home a place of love and joy, a place where we are always welcome. I've seen many laughs and many tears. Thank you for a wonderful example of a loving godly marriage. The Lord has truly blessed and I look forward to seeing how He leads in the coming years.

I love you both!
Laurie :)
