Tomorrow marks our thirty eighth wedding anniversary. If I had one wish it would be to have at least another thirty eight years together. The moments, hours, days and years speed by and leave us wondering where and how they could have gone so fast. No matter how hard we try to hold on to them they slip through our hands like fine grains of sand. Each and every one a tiny piece of the tapestry of our lives. If we could spread it out and see and hear and touch each one, it would be a lovely tapestry to behold. A few small snags here and there but hardly noticeable among the overall beauty. It is difficult to convey how one person has changed and enhanced my life beyond any and all dreams and expectations. We were so young; I doubt either of us thought much about how our lives together would unfold over the years. I have no doubt though that we both knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that our love was strong enough to see us through every trial and triuimph; every sorrow and joy. Thirty eight years later I am so thankful that the joys have far outweighed the sorrows. The poem I wrote for Tony so many years ago still holds true today. "You are my memories of yesterday, my hope for today and my dreams for tomorrow". I look forward to sharing many more memories and hopes and dreams. He's still the ONE and we're still having fun.
Happy Anniversary to US!
