(NAME) had numerous stories about her childhood,
the farm, walking to school and having the first Model T,
and I remember as a child myself, trips to Aunt (NAME),
we'd play with the cousins (and that was a great place to be).
Our first date was at (NAME),
you didn't like my sweater but loved my car,
as usual, we had egg drop soup and hot and sour soup,
I never thought two bowls of soup would get this far.
She loved the Lord and shared that gift with us all,
she had a big heart and taught us all how to give,
she was always thinking of and doing for others,
in truth, I think she taught us all how to live.
I also wanted to say Happy 1st Anniversary,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, my heartfelt (NAME), you're wonderful,
and here's to our everlasting love, for evermore.
And we just wanted to say Happy 50th Anniversary,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, Mom and Dad, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to at least another fifty more.
Not that you had to ask me the first time,
because it was innate, we simply just knew,
there was no proposal, no rings, just us,
and that's the hyphenated us, me-and-you.
What a happy anniversary
I do hope that this anniversary is our best ever,
because I've never really expressed just how wonderful you are,
but if my love for you were a distance,
then it would be further than the furthest star.
I'd also like to say Happy 10th Anniversary,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, (NAME)(NAME), you're truly wonderful,
and here's to our everlasting love, for evermore.
You are the greatest gift on earth,
in fact, a gift from God above,
and now I know the meaning of marriage,
and now I know the meaning of true love.
Our first year was a rough one,
you would certainly never call it red letter,
but this, gladly, is a whole new year,
and yes, it's going to get a whole lot better.
Because I also wanted to say "Happy Anniversary",
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to our everlasting love, for evermore.
I also can't believe the depth of feeling I have for you,
truly, it would reach to the bottom of the deepest sea,
and I'll never forget the our first date with your hand on my back,
what ran through me I can only describe as electricity.
And we just wanted to say Happy 25th Anniversary,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you Mom and Dad, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to at least, another twenty five more.
I am more comfortable with you than with anyone else,
you are my princess, you are my dream,
and after our first year together, it's wonderful,
we've proved to the World we truly are a team.
They say that marriage can be hard,
and the first years are the hardest of all,
but ours have been simply wonderful,
with you I feel about ten feet tall.
I also wanted to say Happy 1st Anniversary,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, <NAME>, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to our everlasting love, for evermore.
You gave me the courage to follow in your steps,
and at the end of day, that?s the greatest gift of all,
as Dad, because of you I walk taller,
in fact, I feel like I?m ten feel tall!
(NAME) had numerous stories about her childhood,
the farm, walking to school and having the first Model T,
and I remember as a child myself, trips to Aunt (NAME),
we'd play with the cousins (and that was a great place to be).
Although my first husband was a very good man,
and truly, we had many good times together,
but I know I've never felt this way before,
because what we share will last forever and ever.
I also know that you're a very thoughtful and loving person,
Mom says she's never known anyone even half as kind,
even though you work so very hard every single day,
you come home and mom's the first thing on your mind.
But I also wanted to say Happy 5th Anniversary,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, (NAME), you're truly wonderful,
and here's to our everlasting love, for evermore.
She loved the Lord and shared that gift with us all,
she had a big heart and taught us all how to give,
she was always thinking of and doing for others,
in truth, I think she taught us all how to live.
(NAME) is the first date to actually become a part of the family,
and thankfully, we don't just see him on the holidays,
it is quite apparent that he loves (NAME) very much,
and of course, I hope that's the way it always stays.
I'm proud to be your "favourite" first grandchild,
and that's what you tell everyone I know,
you then go into detail what I did as a child,
I guess you've always been proud watching me grow.
I know we haven't spent that much time together,
but absence only makes this heart grow fonder,
and from the very first day, I knew you were simply wonderful,
I knew then, I no longer wanted to wander.
Because you have persistently and consistently loved us,
and it seems like 'you' is always the last thing on your mind,
you have this wonderful gift of being able to inspire,
and we know that's a treasure and so very hard to find.
I also wanted to say Happy First Anniversary,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, (NAME), you're wonderful,
and here's to our everlasting love, for evermore.
And I also wanted to say Happy Anniversary,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, oh many names, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to us sharing our precious moments, for evermore.
anniversary first gift
