Valentine's Day comes around every year and invites us to reflect on those people in our lives that we love dearly and hold close to our hearts. I am very fortunate in my lifetime that I have been loved by many, as well as having many that I truly love and adore.
This blog is dedicated today to my special Valentine, my cute husband. We have been soulmates and in love for 35 years. We met in 1975 on a blind date at BYU. The rest is history.
I was twenty years old. "How are you so tan ?" , you might ask yourself, knowing that this picture was taken in Provo. I had just returned from Hawaii. John was twenty two, studying paleobotany @ BYU.
Now, all these many years later, we are still in love. We've lived in seven states, raised 4 children and are the grandparents of five. It's been a happy life.
"Grow old along with me !
The best is yet to be,
The last of life, for which the first was made:
Our times are in His hand
Who saith, "A whole I planned,
Youth shows but half; trust God:
see all, nor be afraid!"
~Robert Browning
Happy Valentine's Day Dollar

Happy Valentine's Day to all the special people in my life.
I love you !
