It’s hard to believe that 35 years ago, two young kids fresh from college made a commitment for life with one another. In an age of disposability, where few things are made for lasting permanence, we chose to stay with each other through sickness and health and to ride the roller coaster of Life together.

I couldn’t imagine a better person to share my life with. I often say that Brian is my “better half” but I mean it with great sincerity. He is the Ying to my Yang. He balances me. He enhances me. He make ME a better person because of who HE is. We are a good team together. We created 3 phenomenal children who are successful adults. I truly couldn’t ask more from anyone.

Looking back over the years, we’ve had some wonderful adventures together. We’ve laughed together and cried together. But the point is, we’ve done it together.

Being married to your best friend is something to be truly thankful for. I suppose this is why we chose this time of year for our wedding, so that each year, we formally give thanks.

I love you Brian. Please, always be YOU.
