Yes, we were married when we were 10

What, we don't look old enough to be married 15 years? Gosh, thanks :)
Yah, you know... we were um 10 when we got married. I'd post a picture to prove it, but they're in storage.
So you'll just have to take our word for it.

When we were first married, I used to look at older couples and love the way they were so comfortable together. It didn't matter if they were in bathing suits that weren't flattering... in tank tops with arm "wings"... with wrinkles... spider veins... ear hair... and all. You could just look at them and see confidence, experience and contentment. Genuine happiness and real love.  They had been in the spotlight years before and were happy to be out of it, even happier for their children or someone they love to now be in the light. They sit back and enjoy memories, their loved ones and just life in general. They grow old together and don't even realize life is moving so fast, because the ride is so good.

Hopefully newlyweds will look at us down the road- with our arm wings, purple veins and ear hair- and think that real love is present.

I simply wouldn't want to imagine not having you beside me all the way...  Happy 15th Anniversary :)
