Those of you who read this blog know that it is written by my lovely, talented, slightly quirky and very funny wife (yes honey, I have hacked into your blog). Tomorrow we celebrate our 21st wedding anniversary. 21 years is a relatively long time but it really doesn't seem all that long ago. I remember the day well, a beautiful bride, lost keys, close friends, family, posing for pictures, lots of green and mauve (such "in" colors at the time), a long line of well wishers, cleaning up (I will let Shanon explain that one at a later date, lets just say I was kind of a "duty freak" and really dumb).
A lot happens over 21 years. Such as 5 children, several job changes, some health issues, 5 houses, 3 states, lots of good times, lots of tough times, and lots of driving kids around. This list could be so long but as I sit here thinking about everything we have done together the time seems to have gone by too quickly. I want it to slow down. I like the journey we are taking and I like taking it with you. It has made me a much better man than who I was or would have been without you.
So thank you Shanon for 21 excellent years! I would really like 21 more and then maybe 21 more after that. Thank you for being my beautiful bride, a wonderful mother, my closest friend.
Happy Anniversary sweetheart!
Love,
Gary
