“Our Forty-Eighth Wedding Anniversary”
Today is a very special day for my sweetheart and me. We were married on this day in 1973. I love her so much more than I did the day we married.
I wish that I could tell you how wonderful it is being married to this smart, funny, creative, thoughtful woman, but I can’t. I am a person of words. I love words. I cherish them. But, for some things, there simply are no words.
As love grows, so does joy. We enjoy such little things together these days. For example, last night we had a lot of fun with cherry tomatoes. She was tossing them to me, and I was trying to catch them in my mouth. Between her lousy pitching and my equally lousy catching, one poor tomato had been thrown and missed and washed and thrown again so many times that it was practically tomato juice when my love gently put it in my mouth.
There is a proverb in the Bible that says, “He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the LORD” (Proverbs 18:22) Yes indeed!
I love you babe. I have a lot of friends who read my posts, and I appreciate them all. But you . . ., you are the best! When I struggle to believe in the grace and goodness of God or my own worth as a human being, I think of you. The dark doubts melt away and the sun throws both legs over the horizon. And I know it’s going to be a good day.
