We’ve Come A Long Way, Baby

I recently perused an old journal from my college days.  There’s absolutely no reason to share much of that drivel here.  I’m trying to decide if it’s even worth keeping.  Do I really want my children and grandchildren to read this stuff one day?

However, I will share this, which fell out of the journal when I opened it:

That’s the boy I fell in love with, all those years ago.
So much has happened in between.  He liked Patty.  I liked Tom.  Formals, Vienna, the Army, Texas, Palm Springs, and Seattle.  I got a job, he got a job, we moved to Green Bay.  We got a dog.  We had a baby.  He became my new job.  New friends, old friends, another baby, another move, still not back east.  New friends, old friends, starting a new company.  Bahamas, St. Thomas, Great Britain, Yellowstone, San Francisco, San Diego, Orcas Island, Italy.  Lots of travel.  Lots of laughs.  A few tears.  More love every year.
Happy 17th Anniversary to us!
