Thirty-four years
Of laughter and tears
Babies and diapers
And runny nose wipers,
Caring and sharing,
And living and giving,
Thirty-four years,
Of our hopes and our fears,
Successes and failures,
And illness and cures,
School programs boring,
Forgive please my snoring,
Thirty-four years,
Of home and careers,
Working and playing,
Of loving and praying,
Four children are born,
Lost family we mourn,
A grandson arrives,
On with our lives,
Thirty-four years
Of laughter and tears,
You’ve been my wife,
My love and my life.


Connie and I have made it another year. I think after thirty-four years I am starting to wear her down and although she could do better, she has decided I will do for another year or two...
