We celebrated our 7th year anniversary on the last Sunday of Advent. A simple thanksgiving during mass made it more meaningful when our family lighted the advent candles before the mass began. He took me to a symphony orchestra featuring John Denver's arrangements on various Christmas carols, and we had dinner at a newly opened restobar (Yardhouse) in Downtown Denver right after.
A few days before Christmas he took me to our favorite Italian restaurant (especially during the Holidays), and then to a comedy "Santa's Red Big Sack". Feels good to be out on a date... when I don't have anything to take care of but myself.
How does a marriage last seven years? That's a mystery to be solved, and I hope a "lifetime" would answer it eventually. There were crazy days that made me weep and want to just give up. But moments of happy and bliss spells what you call the daily grind, and I guess that's what matters. I pray that our years will be merry and merrier... and our hearts will be full of love and respect for each other... may we grow old together laughing about how silly it is to be together and how sad it is to be far apart... may our children and future grandchildren know love through us...
"Thank you for enduring seven years with me!", he says LOL! Thank you, indeed!
