14 Years by the numbers – an anniversary reflection

May 27th, 2009 by Marc A. Pitman

My wife of 14 years
14 years ago, at about this time, I was getting ready to walk down the aisle with the woman who was to be my wife. (Yes, we both walked down the aisle.)

14 years by the numbers:

  • 5110 days
  • 7,358,400 minutes
  • 441,504,000 seconds
  • 1 trip to India (the other was in the few brief months before we were married!)
  • 12 moves
  • 3 babies
  • 3 states
  • 3 employers (and 1 pyscho I worked for when I was self-employed)
  • 1 church plant
  • 5,000 individuals in the Waterville area shown God’s love in practical ways

What is harder to quantify is the ups and the downs, the curves God’s thrown on our path, the growth that comes from hardship and the joys that come from growth.

But any way you count it, I’m grateful for these 14 years and am looking forward to the next 114!
