Today is our seventh wedding anniversary. I've never been married seven years to anyone before, so this is a first for me. I reached a sixth anniversary once, back in 1994 and I don't remember anything about it, which probably explains why it was the last one. After being divorced twice, I guess I was cynical and thought marriage was something you do for awhile. I'm glad I was wrong about that. I actually found the person that I will be with until I die, and I think it's a good thing. A very good thing.

A First and a Seventh
Today is our seventh wedding anniversary. I've never been married seven years to anyone before, so this is a first for me. I reached a sixth anniversary once, back in 1994 and I don't remember anything about it, which probably explains why it was the last one.

I actually found the person that I will be with until I die, and I think it's a good thing. A very good thing.
Happy Happy Anniversary, my dear geewits! Your hubby was a darling little boy! And he sounds like he is a "keeper" as they say....! Hope you have a very spcial "day"!
ReplyDeleteOh, that's so wonderful and touching. It's a great thing to know that you've found the single person that you like AND love. :)
ReplyDeleteHehe, doesn't mean they're perfect, just means your quirks are compatible and that makes him perfect for you. :)
Well, the third time's the charm. What a cute little boy.
ReplyDeleteHappy anniversary to you and your sweetie. Like Lady of the Hills says, he sounds like a keeper.
Congratulations! You sound very happy with your Sweetie! ;)
ReplyDeleteNaomi,
ReplyDelete~~Yes. It took a while, but I found my perfect mate.
Jeanette,
~~And we all have our quirks, that's for sure!
Josie,
~~Yeah, I think I'll "keep" him. :)
Scarlet,
~~Sometimes I wonder how I got so lucky.
I just noticed your Charlie Brown tree. I love it! We always try to get a Charlie Brown tree. Christmas just isn't the same without a Charlie Brown tree. LOL.
ReplyDeleteJosie,
ReplyDelete~~I've been practicing doing Linus's voice, saying, "Actually Charlie brown, it's not such a bad tree after all." I made My Sweetie laugh today doing that. In 2005 Urban Outfitters was selling a Charlie Brown Christmas tree replica:

I don't know if they still have it.
Happy anniversary you two. He's a lovely man Geewits. Definitely a keeper.
ReplyDeleteSome times you have to try on a couple of sweaters before you find the prefect one for you. Husbands are kind of like that. I had to try on one just to discover what I was really looking for. I found it 21 years ago and it makes me so happy I didn't settle for the first one.
ReplyDeleteHappy Anniversary to you both.
Aww, congratulations to you both!
ReplyDeleteJazz,
ReplyDelete~~Thanks!
PoP.
~~I'm glad I didn't settle, too!
Tai,
~~Thanks!
We'll be marking our 10th Christmas together this year, so I think I know what you feel with your #3, since that's the way mine works for me, too. And, I too once looked like he did. Happy for you on your anniversary.
ReplyDeleteIan,
ReplyDelete~~I hadn't thought about Christmases. This will be our 13th!
Congratulations... it only gets better with time. :o)
ReplyDeleteBig Brother,
ReplyDelete~~That is so true!
How wonderful, and I love the life context that surrounds your appreciation.
ReplyDeleteHe ROCKS those black knee-highs, by the way.
Jocelyn,
ReplyDelete~~He was quite the little cutie. I think my favorite is one of his Hawaii soccer photos.
I've just started reading your blog - you sound like someone I can really relate to! Congrats on the anniversary and what a cutie little boy your hubby was!
ReplyDeleteLinda,
ReplyDelete~~Thanks! I really adore his little kid pics.
