So today we celebrate our twelfth anniversary--quietly. DH's sister sent us a lovely card and we both gave each other cards. In the last week we have seen two movies--3-D Titanic, a movie we watched early in our marriage on a video. We also saw "Mirror, Mirror" which wasn't my husband's favorite, but I thought it was cute. We went to dinner at one of our favorite restaurants--not the best choice for my diet--but I did bring home leftovers. Then my husband forgot it was our anniversary several times in the last week including today.
A successful marriage involves for better, for worse, in sickness and in health. I hate the effects on Alzheimer's as we are going into what some call THE NEW NORMAL.
From wife to husband in "War Horses" movie:
I might hate you more. I'll never love you less.
I hate this disease, but I love my husband for his honesty in going through this disease. We are fighting it together.
“A successful marriage requires falling in love many times, always with the same person.” ― Minton McLaughlin

Thanks for all the anniversary greetings and I do have that link in a post called "Who Keeps Promises" Sept. 18, 2011. There is so much on this blog over the almost 3 1/2 years of its existence.

ReplyDeleteOh I'm late in wishing you a Happy Anniversary.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you were able to do something together to commemorate the day, even if you had to remind your husband why you were doing it. :)
