I can't percisely place wehn I fell in love.
                    I suppose it's rarely that clear when like moves to infactuation moves to love, but
it happened.

I had anticipated a prince, I was conditioned to a frog, and I got a lifeline
                                                        ­                                a reason to wake each morning.
                         A reason to work through the difficult days and the lose-lose fights.
             For you
                            
                        It's give and take.
                                  We bring out the best in one another,
   But you aren't exactly what everyone had picked out for me.
                Perhaps these things truly can't be picked,
                                          It's more of a stumble,
                                                        ­                                             without anticipation
     I don't need a ring to say I'm devoted to  you, devoted for always

                                            Until death do us part.

You make me better than I was the day before
                                  I'm in love with all you offer and all you inspire me to be.

It's 22 years this winter.

                 So far it's been one hell of a ride - here's to fifty more my lovely

XOXO
