back in the olden days before we were married.
Once upon a time I met a really cute skateboarder. I fell in love with him the moment I met him. I fell in love with the way the skin around his eyes would wrinkle when he smiled. I fell in love with the sparkle in his eyes. I knew on that night that I would marry him someday.
5 years later we were married. And now we have stayed married for 17 years. He is my best friend and favorite person. And I still love that smile.
Happy anniversary, my love.
