It's In The Cards!

   Wow! My wife and I would like to thank all
of you who took the time to wish us a Happy
Anniversary yesterday!
    Nearly 200 people sent their thoughts and
well wishes. Most came on line. Some folks
called. And a few sent cards through the mail.
    One of those greetings was, we admit, very
expected! It was one of the greeting cards!
    Thirteen years ago my daughter and son-in-law
picked out an anniversary card to send to my
wife and me.
     The cover wished a Happy Anniversary
to "a perfect couple" while the inside
suggested it was OK to send it back on their
special day! So.....we did!
     Little did we know what was getting
started!
     That daughter sent the card to her sister
and her husband on their anniversary! And
they sent it back to us on ours!
      Not to be outdone we sent it back to the
original senders the next year.
      It's been circulating ever since!
      Except for the fact that a few pages have
had to be added we've probably saved a small
forest over all these years! Of course we've
probably cut Hallmark's profits a bit too!
       The card has become a family tradition
       Its text and handwritten comments reflect
a lot of love over a lot of years.
       It was great to see it again and to see all
your "likes", comments, emails, and to get your
phone calls!
       In the spirit of our card we'd like to pass
along our good thoughts to you! Thank you
and here's hoping all your NEWS is good!
