38 years ago on April 4th, 1977 he asked me out for our first date,
I was just 16
8 months later he asked me to his senior prom.
In July of 1981 (on bended knee) he asked me to marry him
(No cell phone back then...so no selfies)
I said, YES!
9 months later I married him...
best decision I ever made!
33 years ago today,
I married a man of integrity who has always loved me for who I am.
His love is unconditional and steadfast.
He is the most selfless being I know,
a great role model and humble example for his children,
who all bear the best qualities from their father.
We have been blessed with 33 years of marriage, learning to give and take, to pick our battles, to respect each other, to agree to disagree, to value each others opinions, and to go with the flow.
I'm still confused how I ended up with this guy,
I certainly never deserved him, but God knew different...
I'm thankful for this amazing man, my gift from God
I love doing life with you Rick,
Happy Anniversary
Great blog daughter.
