My Wife

Heather: my wife, my partner, my friend, my lover, my treasure. She's the one who keeps me grounded; she is my centre. She is beautiful, smart, thoughtful, clever and by any measure, the smartest thing I ever did was wed her. (Still not sure what I did to impress her!) We met many years ago in a choir, and as events would transpire, she became my heart's desire. When I thought of her, my heart would soar higher. I just knew I wanted to be beside her and I've always known my love for her will never tire. We have been married for twenty-five years. There's been lots of smiles and laughter and, yes, a few tears, ups and downs in our careers, lots of faith, occasional fears, but our love...the deepest kind of love...perseveres.
