Funny how song lyrics pop in your head sometimes isn’t it?  That lyric popped in my head this morning while I was thinking about my wife.  Today is her birthday, and I was thinking that when we first met, she was only seventeen.  As soon as I had that thought, Sam’s song popped in my mind for a couple of moments.

But today is Kathy’s birthday.  I got her a little gift, and some roses, and a card.  I also have plans for us to go out and have a meal together.  It will be fun to celebrate her special day.

I’m certainly glad that she was born!  And, that she decided to hang out with me all these years.  I’m also glad that she is the mother of our two children.

You know, sometimes it’s easy for some people to take for granted the people who are the closest to them. I don’t think it’s because they don’t love them.  But, some people do special little things for everyone else except for those who mean the most to them.

A big key in a marriage is to not take advantage or take for granted.  I know back when Kathy was 17 I did special little things for her.  And she did special things for me too.  And today we still do.

Okay, so maybe I should have saved this discussion for our anniversary?  Perhaps I will pick up where I left off when that day comes.  In the meantime, I thought I would say, “Happy Birthday, Kathy!”
