anniversary

Marriage feels under-celebrated around these parts. Divorces are subjects of copious gossip; weddings have become elaborate events where no expense is spared. But somehow parties to honor a couple's marriage, those are reserved for grandparents only? There could be a renewed place for celebration at the 5 or 10-year mark, like school reunions, where party-goers show appreciation & encouragement in the earlier years. Wouldn't that be amazing for our children to be a part of, while they still live in our home? If I could host such a party, the invite would be like so:

All this to say Happy Anniversary, sweet love! I'm delighted to be your wife, & I treasure each of our days together.
