I’m so lucky to have witnessed real love in the form of my parents. So lucky.
Thirty years they’ve been together, 25 they’ve been married, and they still absolutely adore each other.
Mum has told me stories of when my Dad was courting her, and how much of a gentleman he was. How he would spoil her with small, thoughtful and heartfelt gifts and treat her like a princess. How he’d always sit with her father first, before taking her out.
The greatest thing though, is that he still treats her that way. When she was in England last year to visit her Mum, he missed her so much and had flowers delivered to her.
He took her on a cruise to New Zealand for their 25th anniversary, and last night he organised a surprise party for her, to celebrate her graduation.
Its pretty clear how much Dad loves Mum. How much he loves all of us, really.
He’s set the bar pretty high. All boys should take note.
