Eight days ago, I gained another year, but today is a much more meaningful day. This is my wife's birthday, the day that the woman I have spent 33 years with now was born. I love her with all my heart, and I thank God for her each and every day.

Lol; this year is all about elevens for me. I got married at twenty-two years old, I've been married for thirty-three years, and turned (sigh) fifty-five this year.

My wife's birthday was yesterday. My birthday is the first of March. Of the two, I'll remember hers and make it special. And it was, both our daughters were here as well as our granddaughter. They stay for dinner which was take-away from her favorite restaurant.

As for mine, I'll let it slide. While I'll acknowledge any birthday wishes, it'll be a day like any other. My choice...

Our wedding anniversary is coming up in August (57 years and counting) and that will be another special day. Like you I thank God for her every day. I also spend some time wondering what she could have done that was so bad that would make God stick her with me.

Hugs
Patricia
