| Ode to my Husband |
In honor of our 16th anniversary today.
Ode to My Husband
first time I saw you—seventh grade mixer
cute freshman
cool stereo
singing Christmas Carols on the table
In 9-16—one of the cool kids
me? just a gangly, awkward seventh grader
High School
marching band camp
everyone is there—following the rules
you walk in and break every rule with your hawaiin shorts that don't match your hawaiin shirt that doesn't match your hawaiin hat and sandals carrying your trombone with no case
.......interesting........
I run for sophomore class treasurer
you learn my name
after you notice my red shorts
conversations
skipping school for doughnuts
talking on the stage
would you like some Christmas cookies?
you don't show up for Christmas cookies
but you do ask me out
first date—friday, january 11, 1987
.....i'm a girl—that's why I remember.....
lady & the tramp
breadsticks at noble romans
sledding
first kiss
fireworks
you dump me for Gloria
you come crawling back
(it's my poem—my version lol)
dates every weekend
love letters from college
love letters from home
engagement ring on my 18th birthday (or was it the day after...)
miami university
brunos & movies on monday nights
western campus in the rain
lunches in wells hall
the young & the restless after
study? what's that?
we're in love—we should be married now!
too young
surveying & corn dogs
arts & crafts in the park and waitressing
long summer
cold feet
rehearsal dinner at the pool
fair parade
tears
crabby bride
good champagne in the limo
fun reception
more champagne
condoms and icing on the car
galena
fighting
too young
oxford pike trailer park #307
.....burned down now.....
great sex
lots of arguing
first child trixie
too young
alaska
call to ministry
sumc
seminary—thank you helen dornetti
osu, not perry
rough times
long years
too young
new appointment
full time job
almost all falls apart
illinois
Max
a new start
a renewing
goshen
yorktown drive
drawing together more
xavier
lima—close to family
move
lucy
move
eli
move
the cement year
I love you, Bryan—with all that I am and all that I have. I'm so glad God put us together and has kept us together. You are my soulmate & my life partner. You complete me and make me whole. ALabels: love |
