Well, for those who posted on my other post about Anniversary Monday-what would you do I thank you. I ended up doing what I said I would do. I bought some flowers and made a card. When my wife went to bed last night I put the flowers in a vase and placed it and a card on the table so she would see them as she came down in the morning. The card just talked about when we first met and how we had fun just kinda fun and friendly. Then I ended with I would still choose my W after all these years. In the morning my daughter was first down and said look mom dad has bought you flowers. My W read the card and laughed a little. I also saw her smelling the flowers. She also wore her wedding ring today(she hasn't since last Thursday night). My W even thanked me for the flowers when she left for work. That is a big thing because she hasn't been thanking me for things I do lately. I said maybe we could go for dinner. But then we realized it might not be possible because of lack of babysitter. She then seemed a bit upset because she remembered she might have to work tonite but she said she hoped she could get out of that. So overall I think my plan was a bit of a success:)

I am so glad what you decided to do worked out so well. I hope you guys are able to go out tonite. Keep working the best plan A you can, your situation sounds really hopeful!

I think I may copy your card & write about how things were when H & I first got together, it can't hurt.

Thanks, I hope we can go out to. But I don't think so. I think I will just make a nice dinner. I hope more that she doesn't have to work and we can just spend some quality time together after the girls go to bed. Anyway, you should give him a card. Just keep it fun and friendly. It surely couldn't hurt to get him to remember a fun time in your relationship.

I agree, I am working on a little note to add to the card I bought. I hope too that he means what he said about trying.

If you guys can't go out, then by all means wait til the kiddies are in bed & make new anniversary memories. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />
