So, mommy and daddy,
43 years, eh? How does it feel? Not many people get to live this long to be married this long--so, baruch hashem, you guys are here, alive, well, healthy, happy and continuing through life, hand in hand, one step at a time. It's pretty remarkable that you guys have been together for not only 43 years, but for those extra 8 years before you wed--the beginning of your time together. I remember when I was 14 or so, I thought that i had to find my husband--you guys set the bar really high you know--most people these days just settle, but I won't--i want the real deal like you guys have--the man that will stand beside me no matter what--and be the kind of woman who can make a man nuts but never drive him away. :)
You guys are so special and so perfect for each other that you make the television network sick--the only way you would have been accepted on that cooking show was if you swore at each other, made fun of each other or criticized one another--but in my lifetime of being your child, your little baby, I've never once witnessed any of that--it's only ever been genuine words, kind gestures and fluffy stuff--with only a little bit of frustration--but even with the frustration comes an added side of love.
You two walk around in this world as an influence to a lot of people--to my friends, strangers, extended family and to your children--especially your children. That's one of the main reasons why none of us are married i suppose--we want what you have and these days, that's not an easy find. One day it will come and we will all know. But for now, I enjoy watching you two dote over one another and live your life wanting to spend all your time together.
anyway, I wish for you both more time in the world together, more time to travel and more time to live--I pray pray pray for your health together and for continued happiness and love--and I pray pray pray that you are both here when I get what you have. A little selfish wish, but a valid one.
I love you both with all my heart and i miss you guys.
May you dine, dance and dote for many many more years together,
Happy Anniversary,
All my love,
LeeC
