Happy Birthday Cathy

December 9, 1948, Catherine Ann Sczepanski was born into this world in Detroit, Michigan.  On July 10, 1971 we were married.  We have been together what seems to be most of our lives.  This is the poem I wrote in a card I made for her birthday today.

****************************************************************

 

Oh my God, Oh my Dear

Today starts your 66^th year 

We’ve been together for most of that time

Near 43 years since you agreed to be mine 

How time has flown as we moved here and there

Making a family with Chris and Sara bear 

We’ve had our ups and we have had our downs

Many more laughs and not too many frowns 

Could anyone be a more special mother

As I look at our kids, would not want any other 

As we walk together into our golden years

We’ll face the our mortality without any fears 

I thank you for holding my hand on the way

To Wilmington now where we’re going to stay  

All my own words to say I love you so much

No store bought card this year to use as a crutch 

HAPPY 65^TH BIRTHDAY CATHY
