Another year has rolled around, each one seeming to pick up speed. March 29th, 2025 marks 56 years of marriage for Tom and I.
I am happy to report that we still remain best friends. Our partnership is strong, and has seen us through yet another time of recovering and caretaking.
On Friday the 28th we had a little celebration with our breakfast friends. There was chocolate cake with yellow roses. Our original wedding cake was chocolate too, unusual for that long ago era of 1969.
This evening we'll go out to dinner, nothing too fancy, and take son Jake with us. Other members of the immediate family are traveling.
Fifty-six years sounds like a long time, and I guess it is, but if you are fortunate enough for you and your life partner to keep on ticking, it's just one day after another, good days and not so good days , adventurous days and ordinary days, days shared with family and friends, quiet days with just the two of you, until they add up to a long life of days bound by an enduring love.
Happy anniversary! I think it's great that you two are still hanging in there so well.
