Today is our wedding anniversary!

40 years ago today I married my best friend, my soul mate, my one true love.

It was such a wonderful day.

Happy anniversary, Sweetheart!

A celebration alone

Today is a happy day but it would have been happier if John were physically here.

John was always my biggest cheerleader. 

He was proud of me when I sometimes had trouble being proud of myself.

 

 

 

 

 

 

When I published my first book, I don't know who was more excited to open the box of books - me or him. 

Well, today, my book #4 is published. It's dedicated to John. All of my books are. 

But I sure wish he was here to give me a hug and a kiss. 

That would have made today perfect.

But I know he is with me. 

So, I will go forth. I will have that glass of bubbly to celebrate and know that he is smiling.

 

And in my heart I know that he is saying the words he always said - "I'm so proud of you." ♥
