Happy Valentine's Day to my Sweetheart. This is our 43rd Valentine's together. And the old quote "you're not getting older, you're getting better" certainly rings true. There's a lot of life lived in that many years. We have had fun times, sad times, hard times, joyful times. We have 8 wonderful children (4 adopted by marriage) and 11 beautiful grandchildren who are the smartest and best looking on the planet. No matter what happens, I can always count on my sweetheart to be there for me. He goes to chick flicks, helps me spend hours on Christmas projects (even though he doesn't always approve), runs errands for me, will go to the store late Saturday night because I have decided I need "one more thing" for my lesson on Sunday. And he does dishes! and vacuums! So I just want to say I LOVE YOU and thanks for being my best friend forever!
