Sometimes in life there comes a time when
you need to write down those things that you
want to say... Life goes by so fast and we
get caught up in the scenes of it... and I
pass you and you pass me as we live our
lives... one yet sometimes due to the curves
life throws at us... we are separate. Yet
always we are one.
Thank you for being such a beautiful part of
my life but even more my soul. When you walk
in the room, my heart still after all these
years rejoices. And I am amazed at how our
love has grown through all the years.
Whoever said love is about being young and
in love had no idea what love really is.
Love grows day by day... in so ways. And
with all the trials of love and marriage, it
becomes all the more golden...all the more
cherished. I remember the first time I ever
saw you... and I remember all the times we
have laughed... remember that first year...
why we hardly had enough food... yet it was
fun planning how we would live. Our first
house... our first Christmas...
Life gives us a photo book in our mind of
all the times... and so many times in the
middle of the day, I find myself going
there. Remembering... smiling... and being
ever so thankful for the day I walked down
the aisle and took your hand.
And after all these years, I am still very much in love with you. I love
the man that you are... I love the way you
love Christmas... I love the way you show
concern and compassion for others... I love
the way you are with the children... and now
our grandchildren... but most of all I love
you.
And should the time ever come and it will,
one of us will go home first. But I want you
to know that I have been truly blessed to
have known your love. Some people live their
whole life without knowing love. Without
finding that special someone... to share
their life with.
With you, I have touched the edge of splendor... with you I have walked
the journey of life with joy... and with you
I have been complete.
I could not ask for more.
