16 Years

Today Charlie and I celebrate our anniversary.  Unfortunately he is in Quebec, working the Ducks Unlimited National Convention.  But he surprised me a couple days ago with this:

Homemade cards are the Best!

Awesome!  No bouquet of flowers, no box of chocolates, no silver teapots ... stuff that serves no purpose and that you forget about within a month.  I get components!  Yes!  Hmmm ... I am thinking Reba XX 29", Stan's ZTR 29'r Race Gold, and Lightning Carbon cranks to start with.  Now all I need is a frame ... waiting patiently.

Although we are apart on this memorable day, we celebrated before he left and we will continue to celebrate upon his return.  After all, the 27th is just one day.  We need to celebrate each and every day for we have been blessed.  I have a very supportive husband who lets me run around with another man, to live my dream of racing my bike!  We have a very wonderful daughter who shows us everyday how to love and be happy, no matter what life throws at us.

Thanks for 16 great years, Charlie.  Hope we get at least another 16.  I love you!
