Tin Years
No, it’s not a typo. I don’t do that sourt of thing on porpoise.
Tin is the traditional gift to give your spouse on your 10th wedding anniversary. Ten years ago today, my lovely bride Heather said “I do” and became my wife. Sorry dear, but the modern gift is diamonds, and well, you got the minivan last weekend so diamonds are out!
She is the first and only true love of my life. We met in high school in 1989, started dating in April of 1990, and after a four year breakup during college, we got back together in the last days of 1995. We were engaged in May of 1996, and married in September.
I can’t think of anyone outside of my family that I’ve known for longer and still know well today.
The funny thing is that almost no one is reading this blog. It’s almost like I’m simply writing a journal about my life and stuff I think about. She hasn’t commented on my Valentine’s Day message yet. I wonder when or if she’ll ever read this. Maybe on our 20th?
I love you, Heather. Always have, always will.
Your husband,
James
