Happy 115 months to my lovely, kind, warm, clever, and beautiful wife.

If I was a good husband, I'd be thinking about what to do for our 10-year anniversary. ;)

Ah, a little late in the day, but I didn't miss it.

Happy monthly anniversary to my lovely wife. It's wonderful to be at home with you, safe and warm from the cold and snow in Seattle lately. I love you, and I hope I make you happy.

Happy 113 months to my wonderful, wise and lovely wife. There's little I can say but that I love you and I'm grateful we have a life together with our little home and our three cats. I have to admit that I don't always appreciate it, especially when I go loose into my own frustrations and issues, but I know...somewhere in my head...that you are there and I have a safe place to come back to. And that no matter what, I won't be alone. You bring me back. You help me clear away all the smoke.

I love you, and I hope we will always be together.

Happy monthly anniversary to my wonderful, lovely wife. It's a peaceful Sunday here. We are at home, surrounded by our three dozing cats. Dinner is slowly cooking in the oven. The autumnal sunlight is coming through the trees. Days like this seem to stretch out forever in a good way. It's wonderful to have days like this, when the outside world is distant, and the gentle pleasures of home are apparent.

And coming on the monthly anniversary just seems to give it a golden hue.

Happy 111 months of marriage to my wonderful wife. In these past few weeks, you've been kind and supportive as I looked for, and obtained, new work. You have made a turbulent time far more tolerable. Thank you for your love and faith in me. When I held you a couple days ago, and told you "I'm so glad you are my wife," I barely tapped how grateful and lucky I am to be with you.
