10 year anniversary

September 21, 2008 12:55am CST
So this coming week marks the 10 year anniversary on my wedding to my wonderful wife. Right now, she is sleeping in the bed behind me, while I type this message to the digital world, in hopes people will give me ideas for showing her how I love her, after ten years of her sleeping in the bed behind me... They say that Tin is the traditional gift for 10 years. Sounds kind of boring. But maybe that would be apropos. I don't know. I love her. She loves me. We have been through some tough financial times in the past few years. It has beat the hell out of us financially, emotionally, and physically. The stress is written all over us. The love is there but it struggles to rear it's beautiful self all the time. I want to do something, not just go to dinner, not just some thing that just gets tossed in a drawer or lost under the mound of mess we accumulate. I just don't know what.

aw, you are one sweet man! congratulations on 10 years! it is a rarity nowadays to see people staying together, especially through struggles such as you have faced. have you thought of writing a poem for her? or you can have a star named after her. those are sweet ideas. sorry to not be more help... i have a hard enough time coming up with ideas for my hubby! lol good luck, and know that whatever you do i am sure she will love it as much as she must love you!

Funny. I wrote her a poem on our first Valentine's Day. I also made handmade pasta for her as well. I think I started out too big too early. HA! Had to laugh at that myself. She had a start named for me a few years back. Thanks for the thoughts. I appreciate it completely.
