Happy Anniversary


My parents would have been married seventy years today. Dad died last November on his 96th birthday, my mother the year before.

This was their song. Happy anniversary to two wonderful parents. I hope you are celebrating it.

A sweet remembrance.

Nicely remembered. Whatever happened to blushing anyway?

I wonder if couples even have "their song" any more? I mean by that one that sticks, not something that lasts a week or month until something else is spit out from the fast stream of the MP3 download.

What a lovely gesture! And in answer to the comment above me, my husband and I have 'our song' and it's been 'ours' for over 15 years: It Had to be You.

I went to Nan and Grandad's 70th anniversary last year. They spent half the night dancing. I know there was a song, but I've no idea what it was.

This made me smile and remember that my mother once told me her favorite song was "I Only Have Eyes For You." I never knew if she and my Dad had a song they called their own. But I bet they did. They had a lot of "lover's secrets" they kept to themselves.
