16 years...........

Sunday, January 7, we had been married 16 wonderful years. I am married to a man that is good to the core. A man that is loyal, true to his word, spiritual, soft hearted, loving, affectionate, hard worker, supportive and my very best friend. A man that has taken my three children and their children to his heart as his own and provides the support of a father and grandfather to all 6 of our children and 10 grandchildren. This message is going somewhere I promise: ) I couldn't ask for any more!!!!!
Now, back to Sunday.........I wake up late and stumble into the kitchen to find a huge gorgeous bouquet sitting on the island with a handwritten note telling me how wonderful I am.....uhum.....along side this is a darling Spring outfit for me (white eyelet blouse with a navy and white stripped skirt). I am thinking to myself as I make a cup of tea........HOW SWEET!!!! The note gave me no clue as to my forgetfulness:( So, with tea in hand I go downstairs to find my cutie and thank him for his thoughtfulness..............
He looks at me and say, "You forgot didn't you?" and I am thinking....forgot what????? All of a sudden it dawns on me......OMG it is our Anniversary! Oh no, how could I have forgotten???? What is wrong with me that I can't remember things???? Dates have never been my strong suit!!!! How will I ever make this up to him????? Wow, if I could have found a hole I would have crawled into it:0 I felt so bad that I could hardly say,"I am sorry". It sounded so lame.....it sounded so inappropriate at that moment. Well, with a hug and a kiss I was forgiven.....how sweet is that! I did make up for it later........with a gift and a couple rounds of golf (that doesn't really make up for my forgetting though...I will be working on that for a long time:)
Have you ever done anything like that..........I sort of hope the answer is NO....for your sake:)
