Ricky and I have an anniversary today!  We have been married for 22 years.  We are so blessed to have each other.  I love that man with every cell of my being.  Next to my children,  he's the single most important thing in my life.  I don't know what I would do without him.  He's my rock, my hero and my best friend.
  Like I have said before, it hasn't all been sunshine and roses.  But I wouldn't trade the rainy days for nothing in the world because you can't have flowers without rain and sunshine.  We don't have a perfect life but our imperfect life works for us.  Perfect is boring anyway.
  There are times when I want to chop his head off and I am more than sure that I have made him feel the same way.  He can be a little pigheaded and stubborn at times but that's I something that I love about him.
  We've been through alot in the last 22 years,  We've raised to beautiful children.  We've had some major storms that we have weathered.  We've lost everything and had to start over.  But we made it through together.
  Sometimes,  when I am having a bad day or things are just not going my way all I need is to just hear his voice and I know that everything will be ok.  You see, he's my knght in shining armor.  True his armor may be a little tarnished and we may have had to put down his noble stead but he still always saves my day.
  I love you RICKY HALL with all my heart plus some.  Here's to 42+ more years together.
 Love you Dude!
