Happy Anniversary, 2012

For most of you, today begins another new year. For me, it's an actual anniversary.

Nineteen years. This is our 19th anniversary today. Marrying my wife is one of those rare things you do in life that you never, ever regret. And 19 years seems both like an eternity and a mere start. When, as I am too often prone to do, I start feeling bad about myself, I simply look at my wife and realize how dearly I have been blessed. And 19 years hasn't diminished a thing. If anything, I find her more attractive, I want to spend more time with her, I love her more than the day we married.

Happy anniversary, my beloved wife. You are a sweet gift from God. I love you.

Congrats! Way to set a date for optimum recollection purposes! I'm lucky enough to have a couple of knick-knacks constantly displayed that are engraved with the date of my marriage. They are more and more valuable to me with each passing year! :D

Stan,

Congratulations to you and your wife. When my wife and I celebrated our 7th anniversary we had eclipsed the national average of 6 years. I would hazard a guess that the national average is lower today, so thank you for your example of love in a world quickly losing sight of the very meaning of the term, and for the testimony of encouragement for those of us diligently striving each day to love our spouse better (in a more Godly way). Blessings.
