Forty-three Wonderful Years

It was nineteen forty-eight, the year of our births.
Sixteen years later, our paths crossed and it was love at first sight:
Through those teen and young adult years, our love grew stronger.


  On August 9, 1969, we were joined as one.  
Through thick and thin, good and bad, our loved deepended as we were blessed with children and superblessed with grandchildren.  
Life has been good to us!


Most days......................

And that's the way it is..................................
