Our anniversary

Today is our wedding anniversary. Thirty-seven years ago I married the man of my dreams. I can remember that day well. I was really nervous. I peeked at him before the wedding started and wondered if I was doing the right thing! I can honestly say, after all these years, yes! Marrying him was the best decision I have ever made!

Looking back at pictures of that day, we look very different. I am not the slim and trim woman I used to be and my hair is going gray. He pretty much looks the same but his red beard has turned gray. Not fair! He calls me his bride and says I haven't changed a bit. I tell him love is either blind or his eyesight is failing! Life has been wonderful.

We have had some ups and downs like every marriage has but God has kept us together through it all.

Thank you, my love, for thirty-seven wonderful years. May God bless us with at least thirty-seven more!

Linda
