6 Years

Today is our anniversary! We've been spending it playing with our kids and visiting with Steve's mom. She brought her special Chicken Ziti and an apple pie for dessert... I can't wait for dinner. A tasty ending to a wonderful day.

O God, we thank you that you have given us another year of life together. We thank you for the love which grows more precious and for the bonds which grow more close each day. We thank you for the happiness we have known together; for the sorrows we have faced together; for all the experiences of sunshine and of shadow through which we have come, up to today.

We ask for forgiveness for any failure on our part; for any times when we became difficult to live with; for any lack of sympathy and understanding; for anything which spoiled even for a moment the perfect relationship which marriage should be. Spare us to each other to go on walking the way of life together, and grant that for us it may be true that the best is yet to be: through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen

Happy anniversary!! I didn't realize it was today (though I knew it was soon after your birthday. Hee.)

By the way -- have you and/or Steve received your respective birthday gifts yet? They will both be addressed to "Steve and Karen Williams", but it should be pretty clear which is for whom. :)
