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 - Product Review: Black Tire Paint - by Staff. I have been fortunate in that two of my tractors have had rear tires that were in great shape when I bought the tractor. My model "H" even had the old style fronts with plenty of tread. My "L" fronts were mismatched Sears Guardsman snow tires, which I promptly tossed. Well, although these tires were in good shape as far as tread was concerned, they looked real sad. All were flat, but new tubes fixed that. In addition to years and years of scuffing and fading, they had paint splattered on
