Happy Anniversary!!!
Happy Anniversary to all my girls. It’s shameful to admit that I don’t remember the exact dates except for one. I hope the others will forgive me, but that date was seared, seared into my mind as that was my deadline for six bridesmaid dresses and a wedding gown to be finished. After five years, even that one is getting fuzzy in my head.
Please forgive my poor memory for dates. I love you all and celebrate the occasion of your marriages each time I think of you and my wonderful sons-in-law. I don’t know which is greater — my daughters’ taste in men or my son’s-in-law taste in women. Possibly both?
Though even Hallmark hasn’t marketed a card for this, I’d like to take this opportunity to thank the parents of those wonderful men who married my daughters. I hope that you are as grateful for your daughters-in-law. Whatever their (minor 
faults may be, they love your sons.
Now, a note to my sons: one of you has found a wonderful woman. Whether you eventually choose to get married or not, I’m glad you found her. To the other — never give up, but don’t fret about it either.
To my children: I love you all.

Thanks for the kind thought! On an unrelated note, thanks for “Dawn to Decadence”. I’m only 40 pages in, but it’s very well-written and I’m enjoying it.

Thanks Bryan. You’re going to love that book. I read it through in 2002 and have since kept it on hand to refer to. In fact, you’re reading my second copy since my brother ‘misplaced’ my first one.
We’re still looking for the other two books I was going to send you. I’ve even searched the bookshelves — the last place I’m likely to put a book!

Love you Mom!
