Happy Anniversary!

Today, June 27, 2005.

Thirty five years ago, June 27, 1970.

Two people stood together and exchanged vows. They hoped for children. Eventually, through adoption and a fertility specialist, they became parents of three, two girls and a boy. Each unique, each special, each prayed for. Each wanted. Each loved uniquely.

Today, those children are adults. Two married with children of their own, one engaged to be married. Each told that marriage is indissoluble, til death do you part. Each knowing that one especially prays for them.

To the man I married, I remind you of something even older than those vows.

"143, 44..... 7, M".

God bless you!

Our vows:

I (M), take you (M) to be my wife.
I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad,
in sickness and in health. I will love you and honor you
all the days of my life.

I (M), take you (M) to be my husband.
I promise to be true to you in good times and in bad,
in sickness and in health. I will love you and honor you
all the days of our lives....er, my life.

grin... exactly as they were said that day, remember.....
