Happy Anniversary, Baby!







Betcha By Golly Wow!




There's a spark of magic in your eyes


Candyland appears each time you smile


Never thought that fairy tales came true


But they come true when I'm near you


You're a genie in disguise


Full of wonder and surprise






And betcha by golly, wow


You're the one that I've been waiting for forever


And ever will my love for you keep growin' strong


Keep growin' strong






If I could I'd catch a falling star


To shine on you so I'll know where you are


Order rainbows in your favorite shade


To show I love you, thinking of you


Write your name across the sky


Anything you ask I'll try, `cause






Betcha by golly, wow


You're the one that I've been waiting for forever


And ever will my love for you keep growin' strong


Keep growin' strong






Betcha by golly, wow


You're the one that I've been waiting for forever


And ever will my love for you keep growin' strong


Keep growin' strong






Betcha by golly, wow


You're the one that I've been waiting for forever


And ever will my love for you

Actually,
our anniversary is January 1st....
but I plan to be busy tomorrow,
so this is my opportunity to
let you know how
fortunate I find myself.
 
As some of you know...
my sweetie and I are
"re-treads"
meaning...
we have tried this marriage thing
a time or two...
and well....finally God intervened
and we found each other.
It has been five years.
Doesn't sound like a lot...
but in 50-something years, it is a lifetime.
 
I have never been happier,
and find myself
excited when ever he comes home from being away...
giddy even..
blessed (I know)...
smiles.

  4. We ARE lucky indeed....and blessed too. Our day was low key, and stress free, we spent it with mostly just each other...except for a quick trip to our favorite deli, and an early morning meeting at church...the day was spent snuggling up against the cold...grateful.
