Happy Birthday to my wife, Melanie
Anybody who has ever heard me speak knows the story. I was 16. She was 15. I'd never even been on a date, but knew this was it. And it was. Married at 19 and 18. Almost 37 years, four adult children and three grandchildren later, I still know she was the best gift God has ever given me in this world. Almost forty years of loving her and it only gets better with the passing of time. I'd always looked forward to growing older with her and my hopes have exceeded anything I would have imagined. Happy Birthday, my love. You really are a precious treasure and I want the world to know it.
