Yesterday my wife and I celebrated our 15th anniversary. In some ways it seems like just yesterday, other days it feels like FOREVER!<br />There we were 15 years ago, 2 dumb kids getting married. The rumor mill claimed we had to and were pregnant. 10 years later and many infertility treatments later we had 3 wonderful kids, so I guess we showed them!<br />Everyone said we wouldn't last 5 years, I guess we showed them too. <br />It has been a hard 15 years at times, but well worth it. <br />We are a million miles from where we were then, but we traveled the road together, side by side. There have been a lot of hardships with the easy times, but we have weathered them together. <br />From the first time I saw her back in high school I knew she was the one for me, and of course I was right. We got married right after she graduated and now here we are, more in love than ever (most days).<br />Here we go into another 15.

Re: 15 years together

I can tell you from my own personal experience it's the next 15 years of marriage that really suck the life out of you.<br /><br />-<br />-<br />-<br />-<br />-<br />-<br />-<br />-<br />-<br />-<br />-<br />-<br />-<br /><br />Just kidding. :D :D :D :p <br /><br />And my mother, long ago gone from us, swore it wouldn't last. Guess it really will be "till death we do part". Who would have thought?<br /><br />Congratulations on your first 15 years of marriage. It's so unusual it seems these days.

Her version is posted on some parenting message board at inciid.com or something like that. It is a lot better than mine. <br />The secret is keeping her bluffed for this many years. It can't be my money, or all my cool stuff....
