Anniversary 2015

Dear Barb,

I planned on writing a beautiful poem or some sweet words for our anniversary this year.  I looked at a lot of Hallmark cards and was sure I could do better.  Alas, as always I've run out of time.  So this is the best I can do on such short notice (only 27 years).

Happy anniversary!  I love you more today than that chilly day 27 years ago when I looked into your blue eyes and vowed I would honor and cherish you.  I hope I have done that in ways that have made you happy.  I know that without you I would not be the man I am today.  You have helped me become a better husband, father and person.  For that I am grateful.  Our marriage, this partnership of equals, this blessed union  that we have is sacred to me and I promise to you again that I will be true to you in good times and in bad, in sickness and in health all the days of my life.  Please continue to tolerate my faults and be my partner as we watch the children grow into adults and as we make our way to a rediscovery of each other.  As we grow older I am looking forward to enjoying together this family, this home we have created on the foundation of our love.  Happy Anniversary Basia!  I love you.
