When you say nothing at all...

So go ahead and ask her
For happy ever after
Cause nobody knows what's coming
So why not take a chance on loving

"Lemonade" -- Chris Rice


It used to be that April 19 was just another day on the calendar for me. Not any more though, as tomorrow marks seven years of marriage to my bride Carrie.

As her mother might say, "Think of it as an adventure." And that it has been.

At one time I never thought that anyone would want to share the journey with me as my forever companion, but I was very wrong, and blessed for finding this out. For she has been by my side all the time, giving me encouragement (and more than one well-deserved kick in the behind) when I needed it...and by doing so, showing me what love really is.

And that is what she has done.

I love you, Carrie. Grow old with me...
