To My Darling Husband~
A poem for you on our 18 year anniversary:
 
Always attracted to each other;
Knowing smiles mixed with laughter
Blonde hair, cut short
Remember when I first met your mother?
Love.
 
Fun times, fun friends,
Never knowing what is next,
Moving Day with a pick-up truck.
Wanting the days to never end.
Love.
 
A secret engagement,
A beautiful private ceremony.
Spur of the moment ideas,
Going along for a wild ride.
Love.
 
Finding a big house,
Having faith in you,
Lots of good memories, building
To the arrival of our babies.
Love.
 
Beautiful, tiny.
Caring and Protective,
A Smart Man with a big heart
wrapped around little fingers
Love.
 
Difficulties, alcohol, pain.
Car accidents,
From the bad,
Comes the good.
Love.
 
Finding new ways
To reconnect.
Forgiveness
And moving on.
Love.
 
Vacations with scenic views
New ideas, new jobs
Soul searching and
Adding another little one to the fold.
Love.
 
Bad news. Bad news.
Enough with the bad news..
Treading water, overwhelming feelings.
Doors closed tight
Love.
 
Reaching deep.
Believing and trusting.
Unsure, depression
Trying to see the light.
Love.
 
Hoping the next chapter.
Gives direction.
For our future, together.
Stronger. Tighter.
Love.
 
And an Irish Blessing (even though neither of us is Irish)
 
"May you have the hindsight to know where you've been.  The foresight to know where you are going. And the insight to know when you have gone too far."
 
Happy Anniversary Baby,
