Today my husband and I have been married 32 years. Like everyone else, we’ve had our ups and downs. Unlike many Hollywood couples, we took the downs and used them as building blocks for a stronger marriage and partnership. Together we overcame spiteful ex-spouses, financial hardship, deaths of loved ones, serious illness, and other life changes we didn’t plan for or want. Also together we regained financial stability, built a successful business, matured in a variety of ways, changed directions for the better, and made it into our later years without killing each other or heading for divorce court–all of which strengthened us as a couple. And together we produced and raised Brian, a rather remarkable human being who never stops making us proud.
That’s not a bad record for 32 years. We don’t have 32 more, of course, but that’s okay. We’ll accept what we have and enjoy the ride together.
Happy anniversary, Frank, and to all others who share this anniversary date with us.
Happy Anniversary to you and Frank, a wonderful, caring couple.
Thanks! We had a nice dinner together in Willow Glen and reminisced a bit.
