Reconnecting After 4 Years

On November 19th, 2005 Tim and I promised to love each other thru good times and bad, thru sickness and health, for the rest of our lives. This past year has brought many changes in our relationship and we definitely needed our anniversary to find each other again and focus on US.
The day started when I found a box on the dining room table with a note. The note said to be ready by 5:30, that he was going to top our first date (which was church and the bagel shop seven years ago) etc. I opened the box to find a new beautiful dress!! At 5:30 the doorbell rang and their stood my "date" with a dozen red roses. Charlie answered the door and said "What are you doing Dad?" Tim said "I'm here to take your Momma on a date". Charlie came running in the bathroom "Mom, Daddy is here with flowers". I walked out to see the biggest smile on his face and he was wearing his black suit. My sisters shut the door behind us, reassuring me that the boys would be just fine. We had a wonderful night and can't wait for the next time.
The other part of my present was this amazing picture that brought tears to my eyes. It is a picture of Tim and I on our honeymoon in Jamaica WITH 300 small pictures within the large one. All of the small pictures are the events from the past 4 years, including our beautiful children and other family members.

The picture (flash ruined the pic - sorry)

The frame says "Kiss me and you will see stars, Love me and I will give them to you"

To My Wonderful Husband: I don't know how you are going to top this anniversary BUT I can't wait to see you try. Thank you for making me feel like the most beautiful woman in the room and an appreciated wife and mother. I love you more than you will ever know. I can't wait to see where the next 4 years takes us - lets hope it doesn't mean more babies! Our family is complete with our 3 handsome sons.
