happy anniverary

Do you have any idea of how many ways there are to say "I love you"? Well, first I want to send kisses and hugs to my wonderful husband, eddie. Today is our 31 st wedding anniversary! For those of you who don't know about our meeting: I was going to school in austin, he was in houston. I came in for the jewish holiday: rosh hashana. To make a long story short, he walked over to me during services, (i think he really wanted to meet my roomate), flirted, and won me over. Three months later we were engaged. Without sounding "corny", I knew the minute I saw him that he would be the one I was going to marry. When you know, you know. I was one of the lucky ones...to find my "besheret. " He is truly my soul mate. I love you, eddie.............................
