Today is our 21st Wedding Anniversary!
The A happened right after our 14th, so we've made it 7-years past that. Looking at those 14-years, gerrygirl and I both have good memories of that period, but we also don't want to let ourselves go back to the type of M we had before. I mean, we got M for a reason right? We loved each other. What we didn't know is that it takes work. We learned that post-A, I think I especially learned that lesson...and now, here we are.
Gerrygirl, I love you, and I'm happy to be able to wake up next to you each morning.

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.

Don’t listen to your head, it’s easily confused. Don’t listen to your heart, its fickle. Listen to your soul, God doesn't steer you wrong.
