Happy Anniversary, My Sweet Husband

We stood in front of our parents, our family, our friends and God and said, "I do."     Every day for the past twenty years, I have woke up beside you and said, "I do" all over again.

Some people define romance as flowers, chocolates and expensive nights on the town.     It is so much more romantic to me to get in the car and always find my gas tank on full, knowing that the trash will magically disappear on trash days, finding my favorite drink in the refrigerator, loads of clean laundry, and always a beautiful yard.

Of course, you truly are the most romantic guy I know.    Finding a special CD in my player which automatically starts playing a special song.    A phone call which says "I love you."      You bringing home supper for two for after the boys go to bed.    Coming in to sit on the bed at night to talk about our day.     Opening car doors.    

We are a circle of three... you, me and God.     We began the tradition early in our marriage of holding hands, but not both hands when we prayed to leave one hand open for God to hold.       God has never let go of us.    Through sickness and health, in good times and bad, for richer or poorer, for better or worse, loving and cherishing.... He has been there and never left us.

Happy 20th Anniversary, My Sweet Husband
I love you more than these simple words convey.

Well, you just made me cry.

I am SO grateful to the Father for giving you and Hubs to one another.

And I am SO grateful that you so obviously appreciate one another and what you've built with God at the center.

I hope you have a BEAUTIFUL anniversary -- knowing that it won't be nearly as beautiful as you two are.
