And I have to say, marrying the Aggie and adopting the Big Fuzz were the two best decisions of my life. (Particularly marrying the Aggie.) There are so many things about myself that he has helped me discover. His love and faith continually make me want to be a better person.I don't have big plans for our anniversary. I don't even have a true gift this year. We've been busy and sick and just trying to keep the wheels turning. For that I am sorry, next year I'll proclaim my love with a better assortment of gifts.
For now, though my public profession will have to do:
Thank you for the best three years of my life. Thank you for loving me in ways I never thought possible. Thank you for your support, understanding and kindness.Oh, and thanks for all the sex.
And now, I'd like to regale you with a list of other events that occurred on March 19.
1687 - Explorer Robert Cavelier de La Salle, searching for the mouth of the Mississippi River, is murdered by his own men.
1916 - Eight American planes take off in pursuit of Pancho Villa, the first United States air-combat mission in history. (I know the Aggie will appreciate a good historical/aviation related bit of trivia.)
1918 - The U.S. Congress establishes time zones and approves daylight saving time.
1931 - Gambling is legalized in Nevada.
1953 - The Academy Awards ceremony was televised for the first time, with comedian Bob Hope serving as host.

1987 - Televangelist Jim Bakker resigns as head of the PTL Club due to a brewing sex scandal; he hands over control to Jerry Falwell
2003 – War in Iraq begins.
And my personal favorite. Today is Saint Joseph's Day, celebrated and named for Saint Joseph of Nazareth, spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary, father of Jesus. St. Joseph is also the patron saint of Belgium, a good death and carpenters.
It’s the "good death" part that amuses me.

Happy Anniversary! That's a very sweet tribute to your hubby. I think it's better than a store bought gift any day of the week.

You could also add that on March 19, 2007, I started work at my job in California.
It's very touching. Thank you for sharing that.
