Our Journey together thus far .....................

Twenty three years ago today

I said

"I DO "

to my best friend
when I first met him

I only wanted to be his friend
 nothing more

My husband will tell you that I would

tell him over and over

I just want to be your friend

I think a good relationship starts

as friend  from friendship it grows

or so ours has

the man I said I just wanted to be friends with

we have now walked

as best friends

Husband and Wife

This first year of our marriage

I moved from my home town

where everyone knew me and my family

to a small town where no one

knew me or nothing about my family

I found this very hard

I got a day shift job my husband worked

midnights we hardly ever saw each other

not even one full day a week

I did get to watch him sleep on Saturdays and Sundays

only to spend a few minutes  with him when we got up

to get ready for another night

We have had our ups and downs

as with any marriage
Good days and bad days
Smiles, and tears

I know that our journey

is one that GOD is allowing

us to be on

to have each other through the

Good and the bad
on the journey of marriage
