It's a bittersweet time for me

Bumble Bee

Sweet because yesterday was my 15th wedding anniversary!! We've been through alot in the past 15 years, but it's all been worth it. I love my husband soooooo very much! He's such a great guy.

Bitter because Wednesday was the 3rd anniversary of my fathers death. It's always going to be a hard time of year for me. One day I am remembering one of the worst days of my life, and the next one of the happiest days of my life.

My hubby and I went out for dinner last night, he bought me the most beautiful arrangement of roses, with an orchid in the middle. That was the flower I used to bring to my dad's hospital room, he loved them and they lasted a long time. He told me that was from my dad - isn't he sweet to remember that.

Tonite we are celebrating with our best friends and Saturday we are having a celebration with my family. We'll have to see if hubby's family remembers - they ususally don't.

Congratulations on making it 15 years together and, after all that time, still loving one another.

It sounds like you had a close relationship with your father. You must miss him very much. Your fond memories keep him alive in a way. Don't they?

Do you think that your relationship with your father helped you in your relationship with your husband?

I am leaving for work but will be back tonight to read your response.

Congrats! It's amazing how many life events can be bittersweet. My daughter's 17th birthday was that way - I'm proud of her and glad I was blessed with a happy, healthy kid, but am sad that she's growing up.
