Today we celebrate our wedding anniversary. And I do mean celebrate because, despite all our lives' ups and downs, the husband and I are still strong and solid as the Rock of Gibraltar, where we took our marriage vows.Sure we have our little battles and occasional snarky/petulant moments, but mostly we are a team on this journey called life. For much of my young adulthood, I never thought I would get married, or that I wanted to. But I was lucky enough to have that chance encounter in a cafe in a city far away from my home with a person who changed my mind, who could love me and think me gorgeous just the way I am each and every day, let me be the person I need to be.
He's busy in the kitchen now, whipping up my personal requests: homemade pizzas, salad, and chocolate mousse (I TOLD you I was lucky), allowing me to have a few minutes of quiet time before the party officially begins. Best go open the bottle of chianti, eh? Happy Anniversary, Darling!
