Betty Carmichael was outraged because she thought her husband, Donald, had forgotten their 50th wedding anniversary. After having three children together, she was tired of feeling unappreciated. Her frustration grew as the clock neared 9:30 p.m. and Donald still hadn’t returned home. She had prepared a special dinner, but it seems he had forgotten once more.
When Donald eventually arrived, he was surprised to see his stuff strewn around the front yard. Betty accused him of ignoring their marriage, claiming, “You’ve taken me for granted for too long.” She even threatened to divorce, feeling unwanted and abandoned.
During the heated disagreement, Donald disclosed a surprise. He stepped aside to unveil Hannah, his granddaughter, who had flown in to commemorate their anniversary. Overwhelmed, Betty embraced Hannah, recognizing Donald’s intentions had always been pure.
Betty regretted doubting Donald once the issue was resolved. He soothed her by stating, “You’ve always been the love of my life.”
The following day, they held a vow renewal ceremony to commemorate their golden anniversary. Betty looked wonderful as Donald slid a fresh ring on her finger, promising to adore each other for the rest of their life. It was a day full with love and renewed devotion that they will never forget.
