To My Beautiful Wife - from Sam

I've been thinking about my wonderful wife a lot today since tomorrow is her birthday! I just wanted to return the kind words my wife had for me about our Anniversary and our marriage. Raechal is the most beautiful woman in the world, and the most amazing woman, mother, and wife anyone could ever ask for. She works so hard at everything she does, and amazes me every day when I see her in action. I could not be more blessed than I am now to have found and married her. We are all looking forward to giving Mom a special day tomorrow since it is her birthday - she deserves it so much!! Happy Birthday, Honey!!


Also, I wanted to comment on this year's Anniversary as well. I thought it was a wonderful time. As Raechal said, I surprised her by going on a little weekend trip to somewhere new. We went to a small town in East Texas called Jefferson. There is a lot of historic and romantic places to go and see there, so I heard it would be a nice time. I picked a Bed & Breakfast that was great for the most part, and even had a little bit of history to it since Pres. George W. Bush had stayed there once. We had a great time seeing some of the antique shops and riding the Christmas Train which toured some lights, and we just enjoyed walking around and not having to rush anywhere or worry about anything.
It has been a wonderful 13 years and I am looking forward to all the years to come!
