6 year anniversary

Julie,

Happy Anniversary! Unfortunately I bring to our marriage today no more than I bought six years ago. I’m sorry about that. Someday I hope to be able too offer you more. You’ve been so patient.
Somehow it seems we always have hope and each other. The children enrich our marriage but only if we are together ourselves and receptive to our blessings.
This little note could be filled with your virtues but you do not believe me anyway when I tell you about them. But instead let me tell you what the girls and I have now that we would not have had we not met you.
You’ve been so gentle with us. You’ve softly answered our questions and more.

Your warm body with sleepy eyes
Has accepted us into your bed with
Welcome abandon, hugging
Our day begins securely with
The knowledge of our return
To our solace
WE have grown from your rays
We have life from your rain
We have hope from your faith
To list the times and places
Memories, memories
That you have given to us
We recognize and responds to you
Only you, only you
So much Julie to know
Sixty more years so!

I do want to comment on our poverty. We will have all we want, Ergo, why worry about what we don’t have. I have the three things that money could never touch, J.K.E.

Thank you
