Worth Fighting For

In the last couple months I have learned of 3 couples (the girls I knew from high school) who are getting divorced. This makes me so sad. I know I got married knowing it would be forever, and I know Greg felt the same way. I am thankful that my children first learned about divorce on the movie "Enchanted", in front of us, so that we could explain that Mommy and Daddy would never ever get divorced, that it's something they don't need to be scared of. I love that at the end of "Enchanted" (which did I mention is my favorite movie) that the couple gets back together and realizes that you can't hold on to the bad times, you have to remember the good ones.

Greg and I's marriage has not been the easiest but through it all we've fought for each other. There is a new song on the radio by Warren Barfield called "Love is Not a Fight". I love it! Great words. It's funny, Nancy and I were at TJ Maxx the other day and the song "100 Years" came on by Five for Fighting. I mentioned how I really liked the song and that the words always made me tear up a little. Nancy also said she liked the song but had never listened to the words. Sometimes I think it's a curse, but I hear every word in every song and give me two listens and I can sing it for you. It's crazy! This video is not the real music video of the song, but it does show you the words. It's worth a listen:



I love the visual image of angels guarding the door. I know they've guarded ours!!
