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.

    Congratulations, it’s hard to believe that such a young couple could be married for 17 years. It was a real joy to spend time with both of you last April.
