Photo-a-Day - April 2012 - Day 24: Something You're Grateful For

Photo-a-Day - April 2012 - Day 24: Something You're Grateful For
There are many things and many people in my life for which I am grateful.  I've learned to always pay attention to the gifts life gives me.  However, the one of which I am every day mindful is how incredibly lucky I am to still have both my parents.  The quality of this photo isn't the best, but taken on their 66th wedding anniversary last December, it shows them still looking mighty fine. 

Dad just turned 90 on April 7th.  While he is in constant pain from back and joint problems, internally he is in perfect health.  Mom will be 86 this year and is the healthiest one of us all and hates having her picture taken.  We've had our conflicts and bumps in the road; we will never agree on politics, but they are the greatest parents, have always been there for me and I love them very much.
