'I think you have a message'
one evening he said to me
'come I think you'll like it'
so I went to the PC to see

He stood there in the kitchen
as quiet as he could ever be
waiting for me to open te screen
for he knew what I would see

And there were these lovely flowers
staring colourful in my face
he never had known how to do this
but he tried for days and days

And underneath there was a line
"Dear Titia
These flowers are for you"
after thirtythree years of marriage
I still love this guy, I really do

We all know how intimidating the computer can be at times...

on his side, he took time, and patience...

on yours? you gave love...and guidance...

congratulations to you both!

Thank you all so much for your lovely words.
We got married on the 4th of october 1969 in Rockville Maryland, because we were living in Bethesda Maryland at the time.

The picture I took from my own website, Titia's place, where I put pictures in that I love.

Feel free to use them.

I showed the poem to Henk this evening and he liked it too.

Thanks again.

Titia

Thanks a lot all of you.
Well, we had our bad moments too, but we've always succeeded in the end to go around them.

Sweet Rose of Ireland, glad to see you here again.
