"A life does not end with a disability. It is just a new beginning."
Ernst Van Dyke 9 time Boston Marathon Wheelchair Division Champion
From sunrise to sunset every moment of each day
For the past 9 years I've known you,
you've blessed my life in every way.
You opened up your heart and home
and are generous to a fault
You proved that I'm worth saving -
your love the key that opened my vault.
A beautiful daughter and incredible grandkids -
such a beautiful family tree
My heart overflows with gratitude
that you share your life with me.
I'm so blessed to go to sleep safely
and awake with a smile on my face
You helped me to find my reason for living
on my path I now walk with grace.
Your wonderful sense of humor makes me laugh
though I might want to cry
You encourage and support me -
you help my Spirit to fly.
You've blessed me with a friendship -
a relationship second to none
You've given me a new lease on life
to feel like a kid and just have fun.
I'll always remember Martha's Vineyard
especially shoes with a purple hue
Here's to many good times in the future -
so much happiness to share with you.
We'll walk together one day at a time
every day for the rest of our life
Increasing our happy moments
and diminishing worries and strife.
I love you more today than yesterday,
and every tomorrow will always be
A time for growing and for sharing -
no woman is more blessed than me.
Happy Anniversary With All My Love
I could never forget our anniversary -
the day that we were wed
It's just the creativity part
every year that I so dread.
But even though you know it,
it's important to hear me say
The love I feel inside my heart,
the love I feel each day.
These wonderful seven years with you
have been so special in my life
I feel I am so blessed a man
to have you as my wife.
And to see you as a mother
to our daughters as they grow
Fills my heart with joy and love
beyond anything I thought I'd know.
So even though it's a 'guy thing'
to not share what's in my heart
You bless my life each morning
when each new day with you I start.
Remember you are my life's treasure,
a beauty in life to behold.
Happy Anniversary my dear wife --
a wife more precious than gold.
