Week 13-Then and Now

I knew then
in high school
as I do now when
we carved our initials
in a tree that you are 
the kind of man
I want for eternity.

I knew then in college
as I do now when we knelt
at an alter that you are 
the kind of man 
I want for eternity.

From two we became three,
four, five, six, seven.  Then,
poof, just like that,
our babies grew up
and we are back to two.

As I look across the table
and catch your eye
when our family comes to
visit with spouses and
grandchildren, I knew then
as I do now that 
you are the kind of man
I want for eternity.

Rick, It's a wonderful life with you by my side!
