Note to my wife on our 16th anniversary

Dear Cakes,

This has been another great year with you. Your enthusiasm for life and family is electrifying and energizing.

And with that enthusiasm, we've created a happy, safe and fun place to be - a home with a great family.

We've played a lot over the years. Sometimes our play is goofy, sometimes tender, but full of laughter.

Sometimes we've needed to take care of each other, and we've done that with tenderness and love.

We've brought two girls into the world who make this world a better place to be.

With the laughter, the love, the tenderness and our girls, the next sixteen years are going to be very nice indeed!

I love you Cakes,
RL.
