SP'S

Today, Jon and I were too bad to go to church. I heated up Hubby some left overs, and made myself a tomato sandwich. I finished my sandwich and just sat  and looked at Jon and grinned and grinned and grinned.

I guess it was a little unnerving so finally he said, "Why are just grinning at me?"  My mind was rolling back , way back over the years to many years ago in the '60's.

In those days at Hobe Sound Bible College, your only date was a one hour supper date per week. Those dates were called SP's...Special Privileges. You can believe those were cherished moments!

So today, as I sat across from my forever Sweetheart, I was struck with the beautiful thought that after 41 years, it's still just as thrilling! I still cherish every moment with him! I still consider them "Special Privileges!"

The other day Erica was here and Papa and Nanny were having a moment of happiness, some little thing that made us laugh.

"Erica," I said, "you don't have to have riches, fame, or a lot to have a happy marriage........just God and one Godly man."

Thanking God today.....I'm so blessed!
