"... TO GIVE UNTO THEM BEAUTY FOR ASHES, THE OIL OF JOY FOR MOURNING, THE GARMENT OF PRAISE FOR THE SPIRIT OF HEAVINESS; THAT THEY MIGHT BE CALLED TREES OF RIGHTEOUSNESS,THE PLANTING OF THE LORD, THAT HE MIGHT BE GLORIFIED." ISAIAH 61:3

From this day forward. . .

Yesterday marked the 14th anniversary of one of the sweetest days of my life, the day I said 'I Do' to my best friend.

For Better or For Worse;
 Some days it's, "I love you, Babe." Others it's, "Oh yeah, well let me tell you a thing or two!"

For Richer or For Poorer;
 We've been together from hamburger helper to prime rib, from 'stay-cations' to true vacations in wonderful new places, from the thrift store to the mall.

In Sickness and In Health;
 Praise the Lord we've had mostly health. Though there were a few times - double pneumonia, jaw surgery, west nile virus, and a couple of nasty paper cuts.

To Love and To Cherish;
 Sometimes easier than others, but always constant.

From this Day Forward Until Death Do Us Part;

**By the way, yesterday was also Joey's birthday.
Now, did he marry me on his b-day because I was the best gift ever, or because that way he would never forget our anniversary? He's explained it both ways. The answer depends on the mood.   ;)

I love you, J!
