Tonight is our 20th wedding anniversary.
Six years ago I made some horrible choices. And tonight we spent our 20th out bowling with our two kids. It was the perfect evening. One that even a couple years ago I wasn't sure I would see.
To all the WS out there...stick with it. Do the work. Days like this are what makes me realize that it is worth the fight. Not just the fight for yourself, but the fight for those who have helped make you who you are, or who you can be, if you choose to do the work.
Gerrygirl, I'm so sorry for what I put you through, but I'm so happy for where we are at today. Thank you for having faith in me, and in us. I love you.

Happy 20th Anniversary, Baxter and Gerrygirl!
DS, you are forever in my heart. Thank you for sharing your beautiful spirit with me. I will always try to live by the example you have set. I love you and miss you every day and am sorry you had to go so soon, it just doesn't seem fair.

Happy Aniversary to the both of you!!!
There are degrees to which you let people back into your life and degrees to which you let them back into your heart-which, of course, are not the same thing
