Whoosh, A Year Just Went By

I’m sure a lot happened in the past year – it must have if not even one blog got written!

It’s a good time to get rolling again – tomorrow is our third wedding anniversary!

As I sit here at the computer, I look often at our wedding picture on my desk. We both look pretty much the same, although you won’t catch us wearing those funny costumes.

But looks are often deceiving. Even physically we’re not the same. We’ve replaced all of our individual cells with new ones, some of which have changed color and shifted around a bit.

We’ve had a wonderful year together. We survived winding down a business, recovered financially, and invented a positive future together. We’ve made a lot of terrific new friends. Two family members moved nearby.

Most importantly, our relationship has deepened. More and more each day I appreciate the important part Joyce plays in my life – supporting me through the ups and downs – always there for me – listening, reflecting, offering her wisdom and insight. Allowing me to be there for her. What a blessing!

When each day brings a new adventure, a year can go by in the blink of an eye. But we take time each day to express the love, appreciation, and respect we feel for each other, through our words, our deeds, and our hugs.

Happy anniversary, honey!
