Who would have guessed?...

Who would have guessed that two friends and nothing more would cross paths a couple years after graduation and live happily ever after?

Backstory: Dan & I were friends all through school. After graduation he went to the miltary and I went my own way, occasionally writing back and forth every few months or a Hey there by telephone..nothing more. Then one day Dan came home on leave and I was so nervous and excited to see him..that's weird I thought since he's only my friend. We spent that first week he was home pretty much inseparable...after being home about 10 days he asked me to marry him...I said yes and one year later on December 30, 1994 we were married. Several people gave timelines, it won't last 6 month, I give it a year, no more than 2, I heard others say.......13 years ago Sunday we said "I do"...we've had our ups/downs and rough patches but I could not ever imagine him not in my life...he's the absolute best, at everything...husband, father, friend, provider, fixer of damn laundry dryers that break, snow shoveler and dishwasher that I know. I thank god for him every night when I go to bed and every morning when I wake. I think it works for us because we were friends, pure platonic everyday "how ya doing" friends before anthing else.

Happy Anniversary Danielson.....
