35th Anniversary

Sunday, May 27, 2007

Thirty-five years ago today, Ex and I were married. Twenty-two years later, we were divorced. Five years later, on this date, I received our annulment papers.

Ex is getting married this summer to a woman who loves him. I am very happy for them both. I wish them comfort, unanimity, and pleasure in each other’s company.

Our marriage shaped my life more than anything else besides my birth family. I have six marvelous and loving children—his children, and six marvelous grandchildren—his grandchildren. I owe him the world for that. It is enough to bless this day as the anniversary of a family’s beginning.

This is a very nice sentiment, Mom. What a nice way to look at an anniversary date.
