30 years ago she had no idea that she would eventually give birth to the sisters she never had as a child.
30 years ago they did not know about the excruciating back surgeries, the 5 heart attacks, the cancer.

30 years ago she was unsure of whether or not this marriage thing would work.
30 years ago he was vulnerable and insecure, ready to "spilt the sheets" at the drop of a hat.

30 years ago my Mom and Dad were married.
