The date September 11th holds a heavy cloud over it today due to the events of that day 8 years after our special day. 9/11 has, in a way, made me feel guilty to celebrate knowing others suffered. I feel 20 years however deserves at least a small mention.
The day was perfect in every way, everything went as planned. The weather co-operated even to the point of offering that little bit of "Rain for Good Luck" towards the end of the evening.
Looking back at that day I can still remember the inner peace I felt. I knew in Tom I was marrying the man who would always love me as deeply as I have him. We share a deep love and absolute respect for one another.
I would never declare our marriage to be perfect, no marriage is. We have like all couples had our share of trials and tribulations, like the Twin Towers, we've had our fall and risen again, stronger for it! We have been blessed in many ways over the years too, our 3 beautiful children of course being the greatest of those blessings.
Today we say "Happy Anniversary" to each other, grateful for all that life has given us!
