19 years is really not that long at all

This month TFOLT and I celebrate 19 years of being together, being married. Half of our lives, we have spent as a couple. It seems very strange because it only seems like yesterday TFOLT was proposing. If I had a crystal ball 19 years ago and seen what my future would hold with MR. THE FINDER OF LOST THINGS, I would have still said yes.
My favorite gift I ever got from TFOLT besides our children is a framed picture of our wedding day with the following lyrics attached:

Love of mine some day you will die But I'll be close behind I'll follow you into the dark No blinding light or tunnels to gates of white Just our hands clasped so tight Waiting for the hint of a spark If heaven and hell decide That they both are satisfied Illuminate the no's on their vacancy signs If there's no one beside you When your soul embarks Then I'll follow you into the dark

Heidi -- Happiest Anniversary to both you and John! Hope you two can have at least a few special moments to celebrate your big day!
I also hope that you and your family are healthy and doing well this holiday season, I know well it is rough for so many. You are often in my thoughts and prayers.
