The postings yesterday about pictures of our wives and how long we have been married, made me think about Sherri (first wife) all night long. SO I got up earlier than usual so I would have some extra time. I went up to the family cemetery and just visited with her for a while. It has been 17 years since she has gone but it still is with me just like it happened yesterday.
She was born just one mile west of here. Her mother and mine where life long best friends. She was two weeks older than me. We where together since we both shared the same play pen and baby buggy. We set together on the bus from day one. I was told by my mother to not let anything happen to Sherri. Nothing ever did during school. I would wait by the girl's bathroom for her to come back out and would then walk her to her class if we did not share it.
Never dated anyone else and she was my first kiss. Never even danced with another woman until our wedding and her Mother danced with me.
We raised five kids together. Fought that damned cancer together for almost ten years before it won.
Left me with children age 5,13,16,18, and 30. I would not have stayed here if it had not been for them. My life was very empty for a good while.
My current wife was an old friend's "little" sister. When she heard that my wife passed she moved close to us and helped me with the kids. After two years it finally clicked that she had me tagged and bagged. LMAO I asked her to marry me. My kids call her Mother and their birth mother Mom.
Amanda (second wife) told me she fell for me forty years ago when I visited her family with her brother. I laugh at her for saying that. She would have only been six years old at the time. YES,guys I married a younger woman. She is 16 years younger than me.
I have been very lucky to have had the good fortune to have two very good women in my life. God has a plan even though it is not clear to us.
Give your wife or husband a good hug and a kiss before the daily issues of life take over today. You may not get to do it again so GRAB the chance while you can.

Today's Featured Article - Old Time Threshing - by Anthony West. A lovely harvest evening late September 1947, I was a school boy, like all school boys I loved harvest time. The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
