Seven

John and I celebrated seven years of marriage on Sept. 21st. John proposed to me on a September 21st. It was 2001, just ten days after 9/11. We felt guilty...we were so in love and so happy. That night, we looked at a calendar and saw that in 2002, September 21st fell on a Saturday. So we called our friends & family and shared the news. That year went by so fast. And I remember our wedding day as if it were yesterday.

John sent me a beautiful bouquet and we celebrated with dinner out at Chez Yasu in Topeka. It was delicious and we talked about the last seven years over a bottle of wine.
