I had a long overdue workweek lunch with my wife and as usual, I was running a minute or two late.

I pulled into a parking spot and hopped out the car.  Taking two or three strides toward the restaurant, I heard a familiar voice call out, “Dave.”

I looked around trying to find her and soon spotted my beautiful wife walking toward me.  Just the sight of her made me smile.  Just the sound of her saying my name felt so right.

We have been married close to twenty years.  Event filled times that neither of us could have ever imagined.  Through it all, just the thought of her still makes me happy.  My wife, my forever joy.
