Sixteen Years and Counting

Happy Anniversary, My Love

Thank you for sixteen wonderful years.......with many more to come!

Here is the poem that Greg presented to me and the kids this morning......memorized and everything. Greg has always been known to write endearing, yet humorous poems over the years. Thought I'd share!

Thank you, Lord, for blessing me with an amazing, God-fearing man!

Come here everybody, let me tell you a story,
Of a wonderful girl and a goofy boy, Oh Glory!


The girl, who's such a cutie,
Was, is, and always will be of unsurpassed beauty.


Her beauty, wit and charm,
Turned my heart into a three-alarm....
Fire, that is (that's fireman lingo).


They were wed shortly thereafter,
Amongst great cheers and joy and laughter.


Off to England, we were sent away,
To live and grow in God's way.


And then onto San Angelo,
Which was NO rendition of Michelangelo.


And then finally back home, we thought we would stay,
But was that God's plan? Oh no, no way!


He sent us to the Alamo city,
Away from family, once again, oh what a pity!


Here we've been for eight wonderful years,
Many joyful memories and some tears.


What is this.....one, two,.....and now SEVEN?
Wonderful blessings from Heaven.


Though there are no flowers, gifts, or cards,
There is one thing you can see, it's not hard,


Something that will ALWAYS be true,
My never-ending love for you!


(And then he gave me a great big kiss!) :-)

And by the way.....we ARE going on a date tonight!

    Candace & Greg, Dad & I can't be prouder of you both and the wonderful family you have given us! God is sooooooooo good, and we thank him everyday for all our amazing children, but on your special day we offer a prayer of thankfulness, joy and continued blessings on your marriage and children. I still ask Him what I did to deserve such wealth! God bless you and have a wonderful 'date' :) We love you sweeties!
