To my best friend

14 years ago John and I  got married. Who knew when we first met how life would be now? Nary a wrinkle in sight when we met:

Always fashionable:

Usually we stayed out of trouble, but sometimes it caught up with us:

Years of holidays together:

Being buds:

And crazy fans:

Getting healthy together:

We are growing older together, but maybe not growing up.

In the words of Queen:

You make me live
Whatever this world can give to me
It’s you,you’re all I see
You make me live now honey
You make me live

You’re the best friend that I ever had
I’ve been with you such a long time
You’re my sunshine and I want you to know
That my feelings are true
I really love you
Oh you’re my best friend

I’ve been wandering round
But I still come back to you
In rain or shine
You’ve stood by me.
I’m happy, happy at home
You’re my best friend

Whenever this world is cruel to me
I got you to help me forgive
You make me live

You’re the first one
When things turn out bad.
You know I’ll never be lonely
You’re my only one
And I love the things, I really love the things that you do.
You’re my best friend

You’re my best friend.

Happy Anniversary John!!

    Congratulations and happy anniversary. I hope you have lots of years together in good health.

    The song made me cry as I’m emotional today. It’s a song I taped once for R. when I was going on a vacation for 2 weeks and he didn’t go.

    Awww. You made even unsentimental old me tear up. Congratulations to both of you. I think the best part is that you got healthy TOGETHER. How rare that is. Second best is the classic ‘fashionable’ picture. And I loved John’s comment.
