The Older Woman

My dad is married to an older woman. She is 8 hours older than he is.

On June 2, 1939, just before midnight, my mother, Joanna Harris was born. Eight hours later, my dad, was born in New Hebron, MS.

So, there has been a running joke in our family for years that dad looks and acts a lot younger than mom, since he is younger.

Today, we met them in Hattiesburg for a meal. I can't believe my parents are 69. Someone is getting old and I don't think it is them.

Terri and I are both blessed to have our parents still living--still spoiling our kids. My parents have supported throughout the 43 years I have lived.

I, too, married an older woman. Terri is 15 months older than me.

Happy Birthday Mom and Dad!!
