**Anniversary Edition**
To the other half of my heart…
Do You Remember…
June 26, 2006
I DO…
Do you remember our first meeting in that airport…
I DO…
Do you remember driving non-stop from one side of the country to the other, just to be with me on Christmas Morning…
I DO…
Do you remember what you felt, sharing vows behind that police station, with the Sherriff as our officiant…
Do you remember eating cold chicken off the back of the flatbed, in some far-off Walmart parking lot…
Or what about New York? Do you remember the 4th of July we sat in a Subway parking lot, watching the fireworks coming from a boat out on the water…
How about driving up through North Dakota in the dead of winter, when our fuel froze and we needed towing. You kept grabbing the steering wheel, even though you were not the one driving…
I DO…
Do you remember the painful times, like when I gave myself two black eyes in a fit of grief? You had to take me to the hospital and you were so terrified they would blame you, but you did it anyway, for me…
Or what about the time I lost my temper and slammed the RV door, breaking the locking mechanism…I was locked outside wearing a slinky nightgown and Ugg slippers, while you were stuck inside with no tools to open the door…Only after I had an all out explosive fit in my underwear in broad daylight, did the door hatch, lock and all, simply fall out onto the ground at my feet, with you sitting in the doorstep lookin at me in surprise…
I DO…
Do you remember all the moments that you stood in the darkness holding me up…
Somewhere I forgot…
I remember now, because I can see that God was holding us both up…
After all of this journey, remembering everything that we went through, forgiving everything we did to each other, and surviving everything the world has thrown at us…
God asked me to tell you, If you still wanted to marry me…
I would tell you what I told you 17 years ago, today…
I DO!
Journey With Me! 
I have to blink away my tears to type this…Happy Anniversary! I wish you both happiness always.
